Total Time: 4 10

Yield: 6 servings

Course: Dinner, Lunch

Cuisine: American, Italian

Ingredients

1 lb Italian turkey or chicken sausage (removed from casing)
1/2 cup chopped onions
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1 red bell pepper (chopped in 1/2-inch pieces)
1 yellow bell pepper (chopped in 1/2-inch pieces)
1 1/3 cups crushed tomatoes (Tuttorosso)
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
kosher salt and fresh black pepper (to taste)

For serving:

6 1-inch thick slices Italian Bread (from 1 large loaf (2 oz each))
olive oil spray
dried Italian seasoning or Parsley (to taste)
2 tbsp grated cheese
garlic clove (cut in half)
1 cup shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese

Instructions

In a medium non-stick skillet, cook the sausage over medium-high heat, breaking up as it cooks into small bits until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
Add onions and garlic, and cook another 2 minutes.
Transfer to the slow cooker and add the bell peppers, crushed tomatoes, rosemary and fresh cracked pepper.
Cover and cook on low 4 hours.
Prepare the garlic bread slices. Place 6 slices of the bread on a sheet pan, spray with olive oil, and sprinkle with Italian Seasoning and Parmesan on each side. Spritz with a little more oil and broil about 6 inches from the heating element, until the top of bread is golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes keeping an eye on it. When toasted, remove from oven and rub a garlic clove over the bread.
Top each slice with 1/2 cup meat and add shredded mozzarella, about 2 1/2 tablespoons on each. Place back into the oven for about 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
