Directions

In a large skillet over high heat, brown the Italian sausage for 4 minutes. Break apart the sausage as it browns.

Remove from heat and drain the extra grease. Transfer the cooked sausage and onion to a slow cooker.
To the slow cooker, add the tomatoes, chicken broth, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine well.
Cook on high for 3 hours, then add the noodles and stir to incorporate.
Set to low heat, then cook for another 30 minutes.
To serve, scoop into bowls and garnish with a tablespoon of ricotta cheese, chopped parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese.
