Slow Cooker Apple-Sauerkraut with Turkey Sausage and Potatoes

This is an easy, cheap crockpot meal. I usually watch for the turkey smoked sausage (or regular smoked sausage) to go on sale, then I put a few in the freezer.

1 package turkey sausage $1.50
1 jar of apple sauce $.95
1 bag of sauerkraut, drained and rinsed $1.00
1 cup of apple juice .25
1 bay leaf
1 medium onion .25
3 medium potatoes, chopped .50
1 can of green beans .40

Place potatoes and onion in bottom of crockpot. Mix sauerkraut and applesauce together and pour over potatoes. Place sausage on top, and pour apple juice over mixture. Add bay leaf. Cook on low about 8 hours. Serve with green beans on side
