Viewed: 31 - Published at: 10 months agoIngredients
- 1 lb mild Italian sausage
- 1 (8 ounce) carton fresh mushrooms
- 1 green bell pepper, seeded
- 1 small yellow onion, peeled
- 5 garlic cloves, peeled
- 2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
- 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
- 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
- 0.5 (2/3 ounce) packet dried Italian salad dressing mix (I use Good Seasons)
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 14 teaspoon black pepper
Method
- Squeeze the sausage out of the casings into a skillet and brown; you can also "brown" the meat in a microwave colander.
- Drain off fat and add meat to crock pot.
- In a food processor, combine mushrooms, onion, garlic, and bell pepper and process until minced.
- If you don't have a food processor, just chop well.
- Add mixture to crock pot.
- Add tomato sauce, tomatoes (with juice) and tomato paste.
- Stir in the salt, pepper and dry salad dressing mix.
- Stir through, cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or 4 hours on high.
- Serve over hot pasta.
- I prefer whole wheat spaghetti or linguine.
- Top with shredded Parmesan or Romano cheese.
