Instructions

Place the ground Italian sausage into the pot and saute for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently until the sausage is no longer raw.
Place the diced onion and minced garlic into the pot with the sausage and saute for about another 5 minutes until the sausage is cooked almost all of the way, stirring frequently.
