Sausage, Bean & Spinach Stew image

How many of you would like a slow-cooker stew that's not chili? Yeah, me too. I got the new Rachael Ray magazine in the other day and was looking through it. Found this recipe and fell in love with it. The only thing I did different was use great northern beans instead of large white beans. I'm gonna give a plug for Rachael Ray right now. Next to JAP, I love her website RachaelRayMag.com. There you can find tons of great recipes and even some for slow-cookers.
