Ingredients

1/2 pound Italian turkey sausage links, casings removed
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 can (15 ounces) pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) no-salt-added diced tomatoes
4 ounces uncooked multigrain spaghetti, broken into 2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

In a Dutch oven, saute the sausage, green pepper and onion until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until spaghetti is tender.
