Ingredients

    3 Trader Joe's Italian Chicken Sausages - browned
    1 c onion, chopped
    3 cloves crushed garlic
    5oz mushrooms - chopped
    1/2 can black olives - crushed (3oz)
    1 can Trader Joe's Tuscano Marinara Sauce (28oz)
    2 14oz cans Italian Stewed Tomatoes- crushed/chopped
    4 T Italian herb mix




Tips

This works GREAT in a slow cooker. Serve over your favorite Whole Wheat pasta and enjoy!
Store in 1-2 serving containers and freeze, or have Italian night at your house!


Directions

Squeeze the sausage out of the casings and brown, add onions and garlic. Brown 3-4 min. then add mushrooms and continue to cook until mushrooms are cooked - about 5 more min. Add the TJs Tuscano Marinara and crush the olives before you add them. I like this texture, you may want to just buy the pre-chopped. Add 2 cans of chopped up Italian stewed tomatoes. Had Italian herbs to taste and simmer for 90 min. or more.
