How to Make It

Step 1

Poke holes in sausages and put in a large nonstick skillet. Add 1/4 cup water; bring to a boil. Lower heat and cook sausages, turning, until lightly browned and water has evaporated, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Add beans, tomatoes and thyme.

Step 2

Put half of bean mixture into a slow cooker. Arrange sausages on top, followed by remaining beans. Cook on high for 4 hours. Check after 2 hours and add water if mixture looks dry.

Step 3

Remove sausages; slice thickly. Season beans with salt and pepper. Return sausage to stew. (Stew can be kept, frozen and tightly sealed, for up to 1 month.)

I thought this was great. Since my man likes things spicy I made this with jalapenos diced into it and an extra clove of garlic. Although the original version is delicious as well. Just simple and good

Posted before I was finished. This tastes like beans with spaghetti sauce. I can eat about anything but I cannot eat this. It's in the garbage and I am picking up pizza for dinner. There is no way the family will eat this. One of the worst recipes I have ever tried

Wonderful!

This was really good. I made a few changes. I used smoked turkey sausage instead of italian and cut it prior to putting it in the crockpot, I added garlic salt (about 1 tbsp I think), I used 4 garlic cloves instead of just 1, I did not drain the beans or tomatoes, I added a little salt and pepper before starting the crockpot, & I cooked it on low for 8 hrs.

Yuck

This was yummy and easy to make! Definitely will make again! I did increase the garlic per other reviews and checked the liquid after 1-1/2 hours and the liquid was fine. I did not drain the diced tomatoes since hubby & I like having sauce to dip our bread in.

this one is a winner! easy, quick and great tasting. my husband claims this was one of the best crock pot recipe's i've ever done. i would check the liquid level after 1.5 hours instead of 2. great recipe, this one is now a family favorite!

I have made this recipe twice so far and it has been absolutely delicious both times - so simple yet savory and flavorful! Both times I doubled the garlic to 2 cloves and used sweet Italian sausage. The first time, I didn't have the beans called for but I used cannellini beans and black beans and it was still delicious. Next time, I'm making a double batch. A hearty, filling winter stew!
