No onions? Carrots? Celery? Gotta have onions, at least.

I've made similar combinations and garlic is a must!

I've been making a dish like this for more years than I can remember. YUM! I usually use heartier greens such as kale or collards as I seldom buy spinach. My only change to to this recipe (since I have HB) is to use sodium free whenever possible. There is plenty in the sausage so I don't add extra. Salt free canned tomatoes can be found almost everywhere and last but not least, ALWAYS drain and rinse your canned beans, whether or not you're watching your salt intake. Rinsing helps to reduce the "noisy/odorous" results of eating beans for some folks. Enough of a reason for me!
