Crock Pot Italian Sausage & Pepper Dinner

(From Our November 2021 Newsletter - Grandma C.)

Ingredients

1. 1 pkg Italian Sausage



2. 1 red pepper



3. 1 green pepper



4. 1 large yellow onion



5. ½ tsp fresh garlic



6. ½ tsp Italian Seasoning



7. ½ tsp black pepper



8. 1 cup garden style chunky marinara sauce (from a jar)



9. 1 TBSP olive oil



10. ¾ cup shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Slice Bell Peppers lengthwise into ¼ inch strips.  Dice onion.

Heat a skillet and add 1 TBSP olive oil.

Sear the Italian Sausages for 4 minutes, turning every minute just until lightly browned.

Lay the sausages in the bottom of the crock pot.

Put onion and sliced peppers on top of the sausages.

Add garlic, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning over the top.

Pour Marinara sauce over the mixture.

Cook on high for approximately 3–4 hours, or on low for 5–6 hours.

Add Mozzarella cheese in the last hour of cooking, or use it as a garnish when you serve the meal.

This meal can be served over rice or enjoyed on a toasted bun!
