Pasta Sauce With Italian Sausage

Recipe #301936 | 2½ hours | 20 min prep | SERVES 6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Chef Gary in Mesquite, TX

A homemade sauce featuring garden fresh herbs and fresh Italian sausage. The sauce is first prepared on the stovetop. It is then transferred to a slow cooker where fresh herbs are added and the sauce is simmered for several hours prior to serving. The longer it is slow cooked, the more flavor from the fresh herbs. It is important not to add the herbs until the sauce is placed in the slow cooker so as not to lose their flavor.
