This Spicy Slow Cooker Sausage, Bean And Pasta Soup is a delicious hearty meal packed with smoked sausage, beans and pasta. It’s full of flavor and easy to make in your slow cooker!
Soup in the slow cooker is a regular menu item in the fall and winter months. I also like to make summer soups using fresh vegetables from the garden.
The slow cooker is one of my top used kitchen appliances and I have several of them. The one I use the most is the Hamilton Beach 7 Quart with Touch Pad Programming like this one on Amazon if you are looking for a new slow cooker.

My husband loves any type of spicy food and this one is a favorite. This soup has so much flavor and is very filling. I like to serve it with warm crusty bread or hot buttered rolls.
