This recipe turned out a bit soupier than I’d expected, but
there were no complaints. There weren’t any leftovers, either. I’ve seen
several Alfredo recipes that have the pasta cooking in the slow cooker along
with the sauce. That might be less work, but it seems a bit risky to me. Too
short a cooking time, and you have crunchy pasta. Too long, and you have mush.
Slow Cooker Sausage Alfredo
1/2 pound sweet pork or chicken Italian sausage
1 tomato, peeled, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup diced onion
Brown sausage in pan; drain and add to slow cooker. Dump in
remaining ingredients. Cover and cook on low 2 to 3 hours. Stir and serve over
cooked pasta. (Fettucine is lovely, but penne and farfalle are good, too.)
