Equipment

  • Slow Cooker
  • Skillet
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Italian sausage links, sliced into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 bell peppers, sliced
  • 2 large onions, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (15 oz) can white beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Brown the sausage pieces in a skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to the slow cooker.
  • Add the sliced peppers, onions, and minced garlic to the slow cooker.
  • Stir in the drained white beans, crushed tomatoes, and chicken broth.
  • Sprinkle the Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper over the top and give everything a gentle stir to combine.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours until the vegetables are soft and the flavors have blended.

Notes

Slice the peppers and onions thick so they hold their shape after hours of cooking. Leftovers taste even better the next day and reheat well on the stove with a splash of broth to loosen the sauce. Skip the beans only if you want a lighter version, but they help make each serving more filling.
