EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Try making this recipe with a shredded Italian cheese blend instead of the mozzarella.

If the Italian sausage has a casing, remove and discard it before you brown the sausage. Stir the sausage frequently during cooking to break it up into small pieces.

For an instant party, set the slow cooker on the counter or buffet table along with a basket of buns. Just add deli salads, pickles, olives and brownies for dessert.

The kids loved it. I also added a can of sliced olives with the tomatoes at the end. At the suggestion of our 7 year old. :)

Very good. Pepperoni & sausage make it pretty greasy. suggest cook one day, put in refrig then warm it up after skimming the grease off. Will try it with some of our favorite pizza toppings added at the end like sliced olives, mushrooms.
