**Sausage and Bean Casserole: A Hearty and Flavorful Dish for Any Occasion**

Indulge in the delightful flavors of sausage and beans in a comforting casserole dish that's perfect for gatherings or everyday meals. This hearty and versatile casserole combines savory sausage, tender beans, and a medley of aromatic spices, all enveloped in a creamy and flavorful sauce. With simple ingredients and easy-to-follow steps, this recipe promises a delicious and satisfying dish that will please the whole family.

**Additional Recipe Options:**

1. **Slow Cooker Sausage and Bean Casserole:** For a hands-off approach, let your slow cooker do the work. Simply brown the sausage and aromatics, add the beans and seasonings, and let it simmer on low for several hours.

2. **One-Pot Sausage and Bean Casserole:** If you're short on time or prefer one-pot meals, this version has you covered. Brown the sausage and vegetables in a large pot, add the beans and broth, and simmer until the beans are tender. Top with cheese and bake until melted and bubbly.

3. **Sausage and White Bean Casserole with Spinach:** For a lighter and veggie-packed variation, swap out the regular beans for white beans and add a generous amount of fresh spinach. The spinach wilts down and adds a boost of nutrition and vibrant color to the casserole.

4. **Spicy Sausage and Bean Casserole:** If you like a bit of heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a diced jalapeño along with the other spices. The spicy kick will complement the richness of the sausage and beans perfectly.

5. **Sausage and Bean Casserole with Cornbread Topping:** For a Southern-inspired twist, prepare a cornbread batter and pour it over the casserole before baking. The cornbread topping adds a sweet and savory element that takes this dish to the next level.

BEAN, SAUSAGE, AND SPINACH CASSEROLE



Bean, Sausage, and Spinach Casserole image

A bunch of Swiss Chard, 3 to 5 cups, stems removed, chopped, can be used instead of spinach. Swiss Chard is hard to find where I live, and the difference in taste is minimal. Red Swiss Chard can be used to give the dish a different visual appeal.

ENGLISH SAUSAGE AND BEAN CASSEROLE



English Sausage and Bean Casserole image

This is a recipe that my mum gave me and it makes a very comforting meal on a cold day. I am not certain if you can buy Cumberland sausages in other countries (doubtful!) but if not then go for a thick, heavily seasoned / peppery sausage. What I call Butter Beans I think are called White Lima Beans in the US. I think Worcestershire sauce is widely available but if not use a brown spicy sauce. Lastly, I think cider is referred to as "hard cider" in the US so just to clarify it's the version with alcohol for this recipe! I normally serve with baked potatoes.

Provided by Karen Pea

Categories     Stew

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 cumberland sausages
2 onions, chopped
16 ounces butter beans (I used tinned)
16 ounces baked beans (tinned)
1/2 of chopped garlic clove (my mum said half but I like to use a whole clove)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
0.5 (440 ml) can cider
12 slices bacon
2 pints chicken stock
16 ounces of tinned chopped tomatoes

Steps:

  • Grill the sausages until brown.
  • Fry the chopped onions with the garlic and bacon.
  • In a large saucepan add all the ingredients except only add half the stock. Bring to the boil and then simmer slowly.
  • The recipe doesn't tell you how long to simmer for but sometimes I serve after 20-30 mins or so. If I keep it on for longer I haven't managed to overcook it yet. I just add in the rest of the stock as and when required if I'm waiting for guests to arrive.

SAUSAGE AND BEAN CASSEROLE



Sausage and Bean Casserole image

This grew out of my addiction to Campbell's Bean with Bacon soup. Of course, I now have my own recipe for the soup and don't have to use canned unless I want the convenience. My husband loves smoked or polish sausage, so this is a marriage of two favorite foods.

Provided by Susan Feliciano

Categories     Casseroles

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb polish keilbasa or smoked sausage (beef, pork or turkey, your choice)
1 c diced green or yellow pepper
1 c diced onion
1 can(s) navy or great northern beans, drain and reserve liquid
a little olive oil if your sausage is lower fat
1 can(s) campbell's bean with bacon soup
1 can(s) ro-tel diced tomatoes and green chilis (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Slice the Keilbasa into 1/4-inch diagonal pieces. In a large skillet, brown the sausage with the peppers and onions until onions are translucent but not browned. Place sausage and vegetables into a 2-1/2 quart casserole dish. Add the drained navy beans and mix well.
  • 2. Stir the bean liquid into the bean with bacon soup, and mix well - you should do this in a mixing bowl, not in the can. Add the soup mixture to the casserole and blend well.
  • 3. Cover and bake at 350°F for 30 minutes. (Then, if desired, top with the can of Ro-Tel.) Uncover and continue baking another 30 minutes or so, until done to your liking.
  • 4. Another option: you can also mix the Ro-Tel with some cooked rice (about 1 1/2 cups) and spread on top. Or you can stir the cooked rice into the casserole before baking.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality sausage: Opt for fully cooked sausage links or bulk sausage that is made with fresh, flavorful ingredients. Look for varieties with a good balance of meat and seasonings, such as Italian, breakfast, or spicy sausage.
  • Soak the beans before cooking: Soaking the beans overnight or for at least 8 hours helps to reduce their cooking time and makes them more digestible. You can also use canned beans if you're short on time, but be sure to rinse them well before adding them to the casserole.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Feel free to customize the vegetable mix in the casserole based on your preferences and what you have on hand. Some other great options include chopped bell peppers, zucchini, corn, or peas.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with seasonings: In addition to the basic seasonings in the recipe, you can add others to taste, such as paprika, cumin, chili powder, or oregano.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Sausage and bean casserole is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Sausage and bean casserole is a hearty, flavorful, and budget-friendly meal that is perfect for busy weeknights or casual gatherings. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, this casserole is sure to become a family favorite. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal that everyone will love, give sausage and bean casserole a try!
