1 lg. green pepper
1 clove garlic
1 lg. onion
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 lg. can crushed tomatoes
4 carrots, cut up
4 potatoes, cut in med. chunks
1 tsp. thyme
1 bay leaf
Salt & Pepper to taste

Saute garlic and onion in hot oil; add sausage. Add green pepper and rest of ingredients. Cook on high until veggies start to get done. Then simmer like any stew. I cook this in both crock pot and on top of stove.
