2 lbs Italian Sausage links
1 large Onion, chopped
4-6 Garlic cloves, crushed
1 lb Cherry Tomatoes
2 Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
2 teaspoons dried Thyme
3 Bay leaves
3 (16 oz) cans White Beans, undrained
Salt and Pepper, to taste
Heat a little olive oil in a Dutch oven or a large pan. Brown the sausages. You don’t have to cook them all the way, just allow the skin to turn brownish. Remove the sausages and place them in a platter in the meantime. Add the garlic and onions and saute for about 2-3 minutes or until the onions have softened a little. Return the sausages to the pan. Add the rest of the ingredients except for the beans and stir. Cover the Dutch oven and let simmer for about 30 minutes. It will produce its own sauce as it cooks. After 30 minutes or so add the beans and continue to cook until fully heated through about 10 minutes or so. Correct the seasoning if desired. Enjoy with some bread or rice!
