Faux-bulous Flavor

Tonight's soup is attributed to a recipe I saw Giada make on The Talk the other day.  I know she was making quick dinners, I am not sure of all of her ingredients, but this is my inspiration and interpretation.

Ingredients:
  • 1 box organic chicken broth
  • 1 can kroger brand fired roasted tomatoes
  • 1 small container of fresh basil
  • 2 cans of white kidney beans (cannellini)
  • 1 half smoked sausage
  • chopped onions (I use frozen, prechopped)
  • chopped bell peppers  (again, frozen, prechopped)
  • fresh parsley
  • salt, pepper to taste
In a crock pot on low add broth, tomatoes, onions and bell peppers.  Salt and Pepper. Cover. I let this cook overnight. But you can leave it all day.  This morning I added white beans, basil, parsley, and smoked sausage that I had sliced and grilled on the George Foreman.  Salt and Pepper. Cover and let simmer in crock pot all day. Below is the finished product and it is FAUX-bulous, if I do say so myself! I am about to eat a 2nd bowl :) What's in your crock pot tonight?
