1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 pound Smoked Turkey Sausage (like Kielbasa), Sliced Into Bite Sized Rounds
1 whole Onion, Chopped
2 cloves Garlic, Minced
1/4 teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes (or To Taste)
1 whole Small Sweet Potato/yam, Peeled And Chopped
4 cups Chicken Broth
2 cans (14 1/2 Oz. Size) White Beans, Rinsed And Drained
1 teaspoon Fresh Oregano, Chopped
2 cups Fresh Spinach, Chopped
Salt And Pepper, to taste
Lemon, For Squeezing Over Top

1
Into a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat, add the oil. Add the sausage and brown it nicely on both sides (the key to getting a nice deep broth and depth of flavor is to get some good color on the sausage and beautiful brown bits on the bottom of the pan at the beginning).
2
Turn down the heat to medium and add the onions to the pan, cooking 2 minutes or until translucent. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking another minute until fragrant. Add the sweet potatoes, chicken broth and beans and bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
3
Stir in the oregano and spinach, cooking until the spinach just wilts. Season with salt and pepper (I was generous with the pepper) to taste and remove from the heat. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice into the soup right before serving. Great with toasted sliced bread on the side.
