This is a southern dish that I grew up with and still love today. If you use a lower fat kielbasa and keep within the recommended serving sizes, it's a healthy filling meal. We love it for a Sunday Brunch or a light lunch.

Serves 2

1 medium cooking onion, diced
1/2 tablespoon butter
4 oz. of turkey kielbasa (or a low fat polish kielbasa), sliced thin
1 15 oz. can hominy, drained
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

In a nonstick pan on medium heat, melt butter and cook onion until they start to caramelize. Add sliced kielbasa and cook an additional 2 minutes, browning the kielbasa as it cooks. Add drained hominy and cook until heated through. Add black pepper, stir and serve.

This dish is so easy and fast. You can also add up to 8 oz. of kielbasa to this dish without having to adjust the amount of hominy, if your diet will allow.
