ðŸŒðŸŒ½ Smoked Sausage and Corn (Slow Cooker)
Smoked sausage and corn in a slow cooker is an easy, hearty, and flavorful meal. The sausage infuses the corn (and any added vegetables) with smoky richness, making it perfect for a set-it-and-forget-it dinner.
🧾 Ingredients
- 1–2 lbs smoked sausage, sliced into 1-inch pieces
- 4 cups corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)

- 1 bell pepper, chopped
- 2–3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can diced tomatoes (optional)
- 1 tsp smoked paprika or Cajun seasoning
