SPICY BEANS WITH TURKEY SAUSAGE

• In a 5-qt. slow cooker, combine all ingredients. Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours or until heated through. Stir before serving. Freeze option: Freeze cooled stew in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally and adding a little water if necessary.

CANNELLINI BEAN AND SAUSAGE STEW

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a grill pan with vegetable oil cooking spray.
• In a Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the fennel, onion, 1 teaspoon of the salt and the red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring constantly, until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes (plus juices), beans, kale and broth. Bring the mixture to a boil. Cover the pan with a tight fitting lid and transfer to the oven. Cook until the vegetables are tender and the kale has wilted, 25 to 30 minutes.
• While the stew is cooking, place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Add the sausages and grill, turning occasionally, until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Cool and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices.

SAUSAGE, BEAN AND CORN STEW

Steps:

• Wash the beans and remove and discard any damaged beans or pebbles. The beans do not need to be pre-soaked, provided they are started in cold water. Place them in a large saucepan and cover with the seven cups of cold water and the one teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, cover and boil gently for 75 minutes. The beans should be just tender but still a bit firm.
• Meanwhile, prick the sweet and hot sausages (see note below) and place in one layer in a large saucepan. Add the half cup of water, cover, lower the heat to medium and cook about 20 minutes. By then the water should have almost completely evaporated and the sausages should be starting to sizzle in their own fat.
• Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic and optional hot pepper and continue cooking, covered, for another 10 minutes. Set aside.
• When the beans are cooked, drain, combine the sausage mixture with them and add the tomatoes and thyme. Cook together for another 15 minutes. By then the beans should be tender and the mixture just slightly soupy. (The dish can be prepared to this point the day before serving.) Set aside, ready to be reheated when needed.
• At serving time, bring the mixture to a boil on top of the stove or, if at the beach, on the grill. When boiling, add the corn kernels, return the mixture to the boil and serve.
