Scale
- 4 cups low or no-sodium chicken stock
- 1 (28 oz.) can of petite diced tomatoes
- 1 tsp. dry oregano leaves
- 1 tsp. dry basil leaves
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper
- 3 Tbsp. cornstarch
- 3 Tbsp. water
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1 Tbsp. grape seed or vegetable oil
- 1/2 lb. fully-cooked sausage (like kielbasa or other smoked or cured sausage)
- 3 (14 oz.) cans diced potatoes
- 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
Instructions
- Put a large pot or Dutch oven on your most powerful burner. Put on high heat. Add the stock, tomatoes (with juice), oregano, basil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir. Cover.
- In a small bowl combine the cornstarch and water until smooth. Add it to the pot. Stir and cover. Let it come up to a boil. Reduce it to a low simmer.
- Meanwhile, put the corn in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave it to defrost and heat through, 1-2 minutes.
- While the corn defrosts, heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Chop up the sausage in 1/2 inch pieces. Add it to the skillet. Let it brown for a couple of minutes. Stir and brown the other side. Add it to the pot. Stir. Cover.
- Drain the potatoes and add them to the pot along with the spinach. Let the potatoes heat through and the spinach wilt. Ladle it into bowls and eat.
