Tips & Tricks (5)

Sausage Browning Technique 🥩
Before placing sausages in the crock pot, quickly brown them in a hot skillet to develop a rich, caramelized exterior and lock in additional flavor.
Pepper Cutting Pro Tip 🫑
Cut bell peppers into uniform 1-inch strips to ensure even cooking and consistent texture throughout the dish.
Liquid Balance Mastery 💧
Add just enough crushed tomatoes to cover the bottom of the crock pot, preventing excess liquid while maintaining moisture for tender sausages and vegetables.
Seasoning Layer Strategy 🌿
Create a flavor foundation by mixing Italian and all-purpose seasoning directly into the crushed tomatoes before adding other ingredients for maximum flavor infusion.
Cheese Melting Technique 🧀
Sprinkle fresh Parmesan cheese just before serving to prevent overcooking and maintain its delicate, nutty flavor profile.
