Ingredients:

  • 1 and 1/2 lbs (680g) Italian sausages (sweet or spicy, as per your preference)
  • 2 large bell peppers (red, green, or yellow), sliced into strips
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (14 oz/400g) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 can (6 oz/170g) tomato paste
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for added heat)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)

Instructions:

  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausages to the skillet and cook until they are browned on all sides. This step is optional but adds extra flavor to the sausages.
  2. In the crockpot, combine the sliced bell peppers, thinly sliced onions, and minced garlic.
  3. Place the browned Italian sausages on top of the pepper and onion mixture in the crockpot.
  4. In a bowl, mix together the undrained diced tomatoes, tomato paste, dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper until well combined.
  5. Pour the tomato mixture over the sausages and peppers in the crockpot.
  6. Stir the ingredients in the crockpot gently to ensure the sausages and peppers are coated with the tomato mixture.
  7. Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low heat for 4 hours. Alternatively, you can cook it on high heat for 2 hours if you’re in a hurry.
  8. Once done, give the Crockpot Sausage and Peppers a final stir to combine all the flavors.
  9. Optional: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with grated Parmesan cheese for an extra burst of flavor.

Note: Feel free to use a combination of different colored bell peppers for a visually appealing and vibrant dish.
