Crock Pot Chicken-Apple Sausage with Roasted Veggies


Wow, this was good. I was craving this exact dish and to my surprise, it turned out even better than what I thought I was craving. This is one of our new favorites - not only is it full of flavor, it's healthy, and it's what I like to call a 'skinny crock pot' recipe. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Ingredients:
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large yellow onion, sliced into wedges
  • 2 cups grape tomatoes
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 5 {pre-cooked} chicken-apple and walnut sausages {1 pkg}
  • sweet-hot mustard, for dipping

  1. Coat a 4 quart {or larger} Crock Pot with cooking spray.
  2. Combine bell peppers, onion, tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, oregano and pepper in Crock Pot. Mix well until veggies are saturated with olive oil and spices.
  3. Add sausages to Crock Pot, placing sausages on top of veggies.
  4. Cover and cook on Low for 6 to 7 hours, or High for 3 to 4 hours.
  5. To serve, place sausage on plate or in shallow bowl. Smother sausage with veggies. Spoon extra juices from Crock Pot over sausages and veggies.
  6. Dip sausages and veggies in sweet-hot mustard.
Enjoy!
