It’s a slow cooker recipe and so tasty! My husband LOVES this one.
I made this earlier this week and used some fun pumpkin noodles (see image below) I had in my pantry. I think I got them at Home Goods a few months ago but I can’t be sure. Someone said they saw some at Trader Joes recently if you want to make this a little more fun also. You only need 4 ounces of pasta for this recipe and can use any kind. The recipes calls for small shells or ditalina.

I love using my veggie chopper for this. Every time I show this on Tiktok or Instagram everyone wants the link. I got it on Amazon and it’s been so fun to use. I’ve had it a while but have been using it quite a bit. View it on Amazon HERE. I highly recommend this fun kitchen appliance if you chop a lot of veggies.

This recipe is from my Home Cooked Meals cookbook. Find many more macro calculated recipes in my books below!
Super delish! I added extra ground turkey for more protein, but top notch cold weather stew!
Made this for my very picky family and they loved it! I brought it to work the next day for lunch and it was even better day 2! I added some additional veggies (green beans, zucchini, and mushrooms) and a pinch of shredded parm on top instead of balsamic vinegar. Will definitely be putting this on the comfort food list this winter.
How much is a serving?
Can this recipe be made in an instapot?
Yes! I actually just shared the Instant Pot version on my Instagram recently. @stayfitmom_krista. I just sautéed the meat first and then added all remaining ingredients. I used risotto for the pasta. Soup setting 20 minutes. 👍🏻
thank you!!!
For the Italian sausage, are they brat size or smaller links?
