CHEAP AND EASY SAUSAGE CASSEROLE



Cheap and Easy Sausage Casserole image

This is a really economical meal that's quick to prepare. You can experiment with different types of sausages but I have found that the plainest, cheapest ones work the best as they absorb the flavour and don't overpower the other ingredients.

Time 20m

Yield 4 bowls, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

olive oil
1 onion, chopped
500 g sausages (I like the country style beef sausages)
410 g diced tomatoes, canned with juice
2 teaspoons paprika
2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons flour (if needed, to thicken)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a frypan and cook the onion. Add the onion to a saucepan or oven proof casserole dish.
  • Brown sausages in frypan. Slice the sausages and add to onion.
  • Add the can of tomatoes, paprika, barbeque sauce and water.
  • Simmer over medium heat until sausages are cooked through - about 5 - 10 minutes. If sauce does not thicken by itself, add the flour.
  • Alternatively after step 3 place into casserole dish and bake in oven until hot.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes, pasta or crusty bread.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of sausages to create a more flavorful casserole. Try using a combination of breakfast sausage, Italian sausage, or chorizo.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as diced bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms.
  • If you don't have evaporated milk on hand, you can use regular milk instead. Just be sure to reduce the amount of milk by half, as evaporated milk is thicker than regular milk.
  • You can also add a layer of shredded cheese to the top of the casserole before baking it. This will give it a golden brown crust.
  • Serve the casserole hot with a side of your favorite bread or rolls.

Conclusion:

This easy sausage casserole is a great weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. It is hearty, flavorful, and budget-friendly.
