Chicken Sausage Stew

What sounds good on a cold, windy, snowy day? How about a hearty stew? This one is super easy. I threw it together from leftovers and pantry items.

1 pkg smoked chicken sausage, cut in small bites
1 28 oz can chopped tomatoes
1/2 bag shredded cole slaw mix
1 large carrot, diced
1 medium onion chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
salt and pepper
1 t red pepper flakes
1 T Italian seasoning

In large skillet with lid, brown the chicken sausage. Remove and set aside. Brown the onions and carrots, throw in the garlic and the cole slaw mix, add salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and red pepper. Stir around well. Add the tomatoes and put the sausage back in. Bring to a boil, then turn down to a simmer, cover and cook for 30 minutes or so.

This also tastes great the next day :-)
