Minestrone Soup with Sausage

kept byBluemuse
recipe bylifeasmom.com
Notes: 

My note: I cut down on the broth to make it more stew-like, and used sweet potatoes as part of the veggies. Very good, stick to your ribs recipe!

This is a fantastic recipe for the crockpot! Saute in a frying pan as recipe directs, but then combine all ingredients, except noodles and meat, in the crockpot. Turn pot to low and allow to simmer during the day. Twenty minutes before serving time, adjust seasonings, turn heat to high and add pasta and meat. Leaving the cover off also allows soup to thicken slightly.
