Description
Crockpot cooking is a game-changer for busy home cooks. With just a few simple ingredients and minimal prep work, you can have a delicious, wholesome meal waiting for you at the end of the day. One recipe that exemplifies the convenience and comfort of slow cooking is the Crockpot Sausage Casserole. This savory, one-pot wonder combines tender potatoes, flavorful sausage, and vibrant vegetables in a rich, tomato-based broth.
Ingredients
- 1 lb smoked sausage
- 4 cup potatoes
- 1 onion
- 1 bell pepper
- 1 can (14.5 ounce) diced tomatoes
- 2 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
1. Start by prepping your ingredients: slice the sausage, dice the potatoes, and chop the onion and bell pepper. Once everything is ready, simply add all the ingredients to your crockpot, including the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and paprika. Give it a good stir to combine everything evenly.
2. Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the potatoes are tender and the flavors have melded together. The slow cooking process allows the sausage to infuse the broth with its savory essence, while the potatoes and vegetables become deliciously soft and fork-tender.
3. When the Crockpot Sausage Casserole is done, all that’s left to do is spoon it into bowls and enjoy!
Notes
The Crockpot Sausage Casserole pairs beautifully with a variety of side dishes. Consider serving it alongside a fresh green salad, crusty bread, or a simple steamed vegetable like broccoli or green beans.
