Directions
-
Heat a tablespoon of cooking oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
-
Add the sliced turkey kielbasa and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned on all sides. Remove sausage from the pot and set aside.

In the same pot, add the chopped onion and sliced celery. Saut for 5 minutes until softened and translucent.

Return the kielbasa to the pot. Add the cubed red potatoes, baby carrots, baby corn, and thyme.
-
Pour in the condensed cream of celery soup and 1 cup of water. Stir well to combine, scraping any bits from the bottom of the pot.
-
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
-
Stir in the frozen peas and sliced zucchini. Simmer uncovered for an additional 3-5 minutes until the peas are heated through and zucchini is tender-crisp.
-
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if desired. Serve hot.
