For an even deeper flavor, brown the sausage links in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. If you don't have hoagie rolls, you can use crusty bread or even serve the sausages over polenta. Feel free to add other vegetables, such as mushrooms or zucchini. For a vegetarian option, substitute the sausage with plant-based sausages or hearty vegetables like eggplant.
