Slice the kielbasa into little coins, about 1/4  inch thick. You can leave it this size, or cut each coin in half. I typically go with the halves, because it gives the impression of more meat. (More meat=happier husband=wife win!)

Heat oil (I used olive) in a skillet on medium heat and saute the kielbasa until golden brown. Set aside.

Chop the spinach leaves as finely as you prefer. I try not to have any long pieces that could potentially drape themselves over the spoon and turn off any picky eaters. Also, don't be alarmed if this seems like an awful lot of spinach. I promise it will cook down!

Chop your onion into small pieces.....or do what I do and stick it in the blender! It takes about 2.5 seconds, and leaves no large chunks.

Place all ingredients, including kielbasa into your crock pot on high. Give it a good stir, then go pamper yourself while it cooks. Mani/pedi, long walk, bubble bath.....whatever speaks to you at the moment. If anyone asks you what you're doing, just tell them that it's part of the recipe, and recipes are law!! You can direct them to my blog with any questions. :)

After approximately four hours, your Zesty Kielbasa Soup will be ready to go. Serve with a side of crusty bread and a salad, and dinner is complete. Just don't chip that new manicure of yours while you set the table!
