The Banshee, a local pub/restaurant, serves only very traditional Irish dishes but has a Wednesday lunch special of Portuguese andouille kale soup.  No one knows why, but if it's an advertising ploy, it's certainly very clever.

 

 

I'm not the biggest fan of sausage, personally, but when I need to use it in a recipe, I use a low-fat turkey sausage.  So here is a version called Kale and Bean Soup.

 

 

Ingredients:

• 18 ounces low-fat turkey sausage, sliced
• 3 teaspoons olive oil
• 6 cloves garlic
• 1 ½ cups onion, chopped
• 4 cups fresh kale chopped
• 4 cups low-salt, fat-free chicken broth
• 2 cups white kidney beans (or any other cooked beans)
• 1 1/2 cups diced tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• Salt and pepper to taste

 

 

Slice sausage into bite-sized slices. In a large pot, heat olive oil then add garlic and onion. Sauté until soft. Add kale and sauté until wilted. Add 3 cups of broth, sliced sausage, and 1 1/2 cups of beans, tomatoes, herbs, salt and pepper. Simmer 5 to 10 minutes.

 

 

Blend the remaining beans and broth until smooth then mix into soup to thicken. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.

 

 

I prefer one dish meals and often substitute more vegetables (occasionally fruit) for grain/bread/starch.  The proportions of fat, protein, and carbohydrates aims to comply with the Rapid Start meals.

Tuna at its best--in a well-seasoned salad that stays fresh until served (From the Joys of Jello book circa 1962) 

  

* 1 pkg (3 oz.) Jell-O Lemon, Lemon-Lime, or Lime Gelatin 

* 1/2 teaspoon salt 

* 1 cup boiling water 

* 3/4 cup cold water 

* 1 tablespoon lemon juice 

* 1/2 cup mayonnaise 

** 1 teaspoon grated onion 

**  1/2 cup copped cucumber 

* 1 can (7 oz.) tuna, drained and flaked 

** 1/4 cup sliced stuffed olives 

**  2 tablespoons chopped pimiento 

  

Dissolve Jell-O and salt in boiling water.  Blend in cold water, lemon juice, mayonnaise, and grated onion.  Chill until very thick.  Fold in remaining ingredients.  Pour into a 1-quart mold or serving bowl.  Chill until firm.  Unmold on crisp salad greens, serve with additional mayonnaise, if desired.  Makes about 4 cups, or 4 entree servings. 

  

**DeLuxe Tuna Salad:  Prepare Tuna Salad, omitting onion, cucumber, olives, and pimiento and adding 1/2 cup each cooked peas and chopped apples. 

  

Note:  As you can see, this was published in 1962, and before the days of Sugar Free Jell-O & Miracle Whip Lite or FF.  Feel free to substitute MW for "mayonnaise",  ** I think you could also substitute the cucumber for the peas to reduce carbs.
