Instructions

Add ground sausage to a skillet, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and saute over medium-high heat for about five minutes until browned. Transfer to slow cooker along with tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and remaining Italian seasoning.
Cover and cook for 2 hours on high or 4-6 hours on low. About 45 minutes before serving, stir in pasta and ricotta cheese, re-cover and allow to cook until noodles are tender (see note).
Just before serving, stir in basil. Serve topped with parmesan cheese and additional ricotta cheese and basil if desired.

Notes

Pro tip: serve with a dollop of ricotta cheese on top of each bowl.
Alternately, you could cook the noodles beforehand and then stir them in at the end to ensure they are cooked perfectly to your liking.
