Oxtail Soup 

Recipe submitted by DaVita dietitian Catherine from Illinois.

Portions: 8

Serving size:  1-1/2 cups

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil 
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose white flour
• 2 bouillon cubes or 2 teaspoons of bouillon powder (low-sodium chicken or beef)
• 1 medium pepper (bell or hot), diced
• 1 small jalapeno pepper, finely chopped (optional)
• 2-pound package oxtail, small ends preferred/fat trimmed
• 1 tablespoon vinegar (any variety)
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon Mrs. Dash® seasoning blend
• 1 large onion, diced
• 3 whole celery stalks, finely chopped
• 1 cup potato, cubed small
• one 12 ounce bag frozen gumbo vegetables (or California mix vegetables)

Preparation

1. In a large stock pot, under a medium heat, mix together olive oil, flour, and bouillon cubes. Fill pot with 3/4 full of water. Add peppers and bring to a boil. Add oxtail and vinegar. Cover. Cook until oxtails are tender and liquid reduces (about 1 to 1-1/2 hours). 
2. Add black pepper and a dash of preferred Mrs. Dash seasoning blend.
3. Place potato cubes in a medium saucepan, cover with water and boil for 8 minutes; drain. (This process removes some potassium from the potato.)
4. Add onion, celery, boiled potato and frozen vegetables. Cover and let cook until vegetables are at desired consistency.

Honestly, this had no taste - I had several people try it and no one cared for it.
