Ingredients

1.4 lb. Hot Italian Sausage
6 Cups Raw Spinach
1 Green Bell Pepper
1 Red Bell Pepper
1/2 Medium Onion
1 Can Tomatoes w/ Jalapenos
2 Cups Beef Stock
2 tsp. Chili powder
2 tsp. Cumin
2 tsp. Minced Garlic
1 tsp. Italian Seasoning
1/2 tsp. Kosher Salt

Instructions

1. Slice up your peppers and onion into strips (length wise).
2. Remove the casings on your sausages and tear them up into chunks.
3. Place your sausage in a pan on medium-high heat and sear them.
4. While your sausage is cooking, add your tomatoes, spices, and peppers to the crock pot.
5. Continue to sear them until they are fully cooked all the way through.
6. Add your sausage to the crock pot and mix everything well. Keep some fat in the pan so that you can fry the onions and garlic in it.
7. Fry your onions and garlic on medium heat.
8. Once they become translucent, add them to the crock pot. This is where you should pour your beef stock in. Mix everything together well.
9. Set your crock pot to high setting and cover the top with a bed of spinach.
10. Allow this to cook for 3 hours. The spinach should become wilted by this point.
11. Mix everything together and reduce the heat of the crock pot to low.
12. Let it cook on low setting for an additional 2 hours. The sauce should become a darker color, allowing a more rich flavor to run throughout.
13. There will be sausage fat that raises to the top, so stir it well before you serve. As you serve, top with extra sausage fat from the top of the crock pot liquid.
