1 lb smoked sausage or kielbasa
1 small green bell pepper, diced
1 small onion, diced
1 tbsp butter
1 (16 oz) can creamed-style corn
1 can cream of potato soup
2 cups 2 percent milk

Cut sausage into 1/2-inch slices, then cut slices into halves. Melt butter in a 2-quart heavy saucepan. Add sausage, green pepper and onion. Cook over medium heat until sausage is browned. While stirring, add corn. When corn is mixed in, add soup and mix again. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly. Continue cooking until heated through, stirring frequently.

5-6 cups fat-free chicken or vegetable broth
2 cups salsa (med or hot according to your taste)
1 package taco seasoning mix
16 oz package frozen mixed vegetables
1 can fat-free refried beans

Place all ingredients in a large stock pot over medium heat and cook until vegetables are broken apart and beans are blended in. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook 15 minutes. Serve with baked tortilla chips.

Note: You can add 1/2 lb of browned ground beef or a can of chicken if you want to have meat in your soup.
