Perfect for potlucks or a simple weeknight dinner, this recipe blends smoky sausage, tender hominy, and flavorful vegetables into a delightful slow-cooked meal.

Ingredients

  • 2 smoked link sausages, sliced into bite-sized pieces
  • 3 cups yellow hominy, drained
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups tomato juice
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by slicing the smoked link sausages into bite-sized pieces. Drain the yellow hominy, and set aside. Chop the onion and dice the green bell pepper, preparing them for the slow cooker.

  2. Combine in Slow Cooker: In a 4 1/2 to 6-quart slow cooker, combine the sliced sausage, drained hominy, tomato sauce, tomato juice, chopped onion, diced green bell pepper, and dried oregano. Stir well to ensure that all the ingredients are evenly mixed.

  3. Cook: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on the low setting for 6 to 8 hours. Alternatively, if you’re short on time, you can set the cooker to high and let it cook for 3 to 4 hours. The dish is ready when the sausage is cooked through, and the flavors have melded together beautifully.

  4. Add Cheese: Just before serving, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of each serving for a delicious, gooey finish. Allow the cheese to melt slightly, adding an extra layer of flavor and richness.

  5. Serve and Enjoy: Ladle the sausage and hominy mixture into bowls and enjoy this comforting dish on its own or with your favorite side. This recipe yields approximately 8 servings, making it perfect for a family dinner or a potluck gathering.
