Cooking
  1. Start by browning the Italian sausage in your slow cooker until it’s nicely cooked through.
  2. Next, stir in the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, water, minced garlic, and all of the seasonings.
  3. Cover your slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 4-6 hours.
  4. About 30 minutes before serving time, add in the bowtie pasta, giving it a gentle stir to combine.
  5. Once the pasta is perfectly tender, serve the warm soup topped with creamy ricotta, grated Parmesan, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.

Notes

For serving, consider pairing with rustic bread for dipping or a fresh side salad. If you want a little heat, add crushed red pepper flakes along with the seasonings. Customize by adding vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for extra nutrients.
