    List of Ingredients




    5 ounces reduced-fat smoked turkey sausage, cut into 1/2 inch slices
    1-1/2 tsp. vegetable oil
    2/3 cup onions, chopped
    1/4 green pepper, chopped
    1/4 jalapeño chilli, finely chopped
    1/2 tsp. cumin seeds
    1-1/4 lbs. canned tomatoes, undrained, coarsely chopped
    5 ounces canned red kidney beans, rinsed, drained
    5 ounces canned pinto beans, rinsed, drained
    3 ounces canned baby lima beans, rinsed, drained
    1/4 tsp. dried oregano leaves
    2 cups water
    2/3 cup cornmeal
    1/4 tsp. salt

    Recipe



    Cook sausage in oil in large Dutch oven until browned, 3-4 minutes. Add onions, green pepper, jalapeno chili, and cumin seeds; cook over medium heat until onions are tender, 5-8 minutes. Add tomatoes, red kidney beans, pinto beans, baby lima beans, and oregano leaves; heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 20-30 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

    Meanwhile, to make a creamy polenta, heat 2 cups water to boiling in large saucepan; gradually whisk in 2/3 cup cornmeal and 1/4 tsp. salt. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking, constantly, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with pepper.
