Sausage Potato Bake (Monday's meal)

I would consider what we had last night to be a success. Wee-one ate most of what I had given him. He was more interested in the sausage last night then the potatoes which is a shocker because the kid usually can't get enough potatoes. Ha! Hubs and I liked it a lot. The recipe is straight forward and simple (which is wonderful). It's a hearty casserole and one that will stick to your ribs. I served broccoli and bread and butter with it. Of course Wee-one didn't really care for the broccoli. He was a good sport and humored me by eating one or two "trees" so I guess I consider that successful too :)! He didn't want any bread and butter which is typical too.

Feel free to add some extra veggies to this casserole. That was what some of the suggestions said on www.allrecipes.com. There were also a few suggestions to use other types of soups in this recipe. I stuck to the original and it did not disappoint! So here ya' go:

Sausage Potato Bake (www.allrecipes.com)

8 cups cubed potatoes
1 lb. smoked sausage, sliced (I used the kind that had the cheese in it also..YUM)
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (10 3/4 oz. ) can condensed vegetable beef soup

For the oven method: (which is what I did)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a 9x13 in. pan, combine the potatoes, sausage, mushroom soup and vegetable soup. Mix together well.

Bake at 350 for 1 1/2 hours.

For slow cooker:

Place the potatoes, sausage, mushroom soup and vegetable soup in slow cooker. Mix well. Cook on low setting for 6 to 8 hours.

If I would have been thinking I would have done mine in the slow cooker. Next time I make it I hope to do just that. I might try to add more vegetables and try other kinds of soup to see what I can come up with :)!

Tonight's supper was SUCCESSFUL and I can't wait to share that recipe with you tomorrow. I of course forgot to take pictures of the meal so I do apologize in advance for that. I'll try to remember to start taking them in the next few meals. Tomorrow night is French Toast night at our house...can't wait :)! Until tomorrow....good night!
