Steps:
- The Directions.
- The amount of ingredients fit nicely in a 4 quart crockpot. I'd say this comfortably feeds a family of 4-5 with a bit of leftovers. If you have a large family or teenagers, add more rice and sausage. It's a pretty easy recipe to adapt to your needs.
- If you are going to use uncooked pork sausage, I'd recommend browning on the stove top, and draining before adding to the crockpot.
- Otherwise, dump all the ingredients into the crock, and stir well.
- Cover and cook on low for 5-7 hours, or on high for 3-4. You're really only heating through, and allowing the vegetables to soften.
- This will not stick together like a gloppy casserole; it has the consistency of fried rice. Use bowls to serve rather than plates.
Tips:
- Use a variety of sausages for a more flavorful dish. Try using a combination of pork, chicken, and turkey sausages, or use a spicy sausage for a kick.
- Don't overcrowd the slow cooker. If you're using a small slow cooker, you may need to cook the sausage in batches. Overcrowding will prevent the sausage from cooking evenly.
- Add vegetables to the slow cooker for a healthier meal. Try adding chopped onions, peppers, carrots, or celery to the slow cooker along with the sausage.
- Use low-sodium broth or water to keep the dish from being too salty.
- Season the sausage with your favorite seasonings before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the dish.
- Serve the sausage casserole with your favorite sides. Try mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
Slow cooker sausage casserole is a delicious and easy meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. It's also a great way to use up leftover sausage. With just a few simple ingredients and a slow cooker, you can have a hearty and flavorful meal that the whole family will enjoy.
