Ingredients

1 celery rib, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
1/4 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 Italian sausage link, casings removed
1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes, undrained
1 cup canned kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup water
5 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons chopped green chilies
3/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

In a small saucepan, saute the celery, onion and sweet peppers in oil until crisp-tender. Crumble the sausage into a skillet; cook over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the tomatoes, kidney beans, water, tomato paste, chilies and seasonings; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 20-30 minutes or until thickened. Sprinkle with cheese.
