Crock Pot Pasta Sauce with Sausage – Lazy pasta sauce would have been a better name for this slow cooker recipe, such an easy recipe and only uses 5 ingredients!
INGREDIENTS
1 lb lean chicken Italian sausage, casings removed
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
5 cloves garlic, smashed
28 oz tuttorosso crushed tomatoes
fresh cracked pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Brown the sausage in a large skillet, breaking up any large pieces with a wooden spoon.
When sausage is browned, drain if needed and add to crock pot.
Clean skillet with a paper towel and set flame to high; when hot add oil.
Add garlic and cook until golden but do not burn; add tomatoes and garlic to crock pot along with fresh cracked pepper. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
If you wish, take an immersion blender and blend the sauce a 2-3 seconds to break the sausage up into smaller pieces to combine with the sauce.
