Italian Sausage and White Bean Stew
Equipment
- Slow Cooker
- Can Opener
- Knife
Ingredients
- 1 pound Italian sausage, sliced into rounds
- 2 (15-ounce) cans white beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 (12-ounce) bag frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add the sliced Italian sausage to the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Pour in the drained white beans, frozen mixed vegetables, and diced tomatoes.
- Add the chicken broth, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Stir everything together until the seasoning is evenly distributed.
- Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
- Stir once more before serving to check the seasoning.
Notes
The white beans naturally thicken the broth as they cook, so no extra thickener is needed. If the stew tastes too mild after cooking, a pinch more Italian seasoning stirred in at the end brightens it. Leftovers reheat well on the stovetop with a splash of broth to loosen the texture.
