    • 1/4 c. shredded carrot (1 small carrot)
    • 1 x sweet bell pepper (use red or possibly yellow)

    • 2 x garlic cloves chopped

    • 1 sm can tomato paste - (6 ounce)

    Directions

    1. Brown sausage on all sides in a little extra virgin olive oil; add in onions and saute/fry till onions are slightly browned. Slice sausage; place in the crockpot with the onion. Add in remaining ingredients; cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hrs, or possibly 3 to 4 hrs on HIGH (you may need a little more water if you cook it on HIGH).
    2. If the sauce is a too thick, add in a little more water. I sometimes add in an extra Tbsp. or possibly 2 of water and a Tbsp. of dry Alfredo sauce mix.
    3. This recipe yields sauce for 4 servings.
