LAMB CASSEROLE



Lamb Casserole image

You'll adore this casserole of fresh lamb, smoked ham, sausage, mixed vegetables, and large, white Italian kidney beans. Serve with fresh crusty bread. If you cook the lamb shank in water, boil it until it's falling off the bone. Then strain and reserve the stock, and replace the chicken stock with the lamb stock.

2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
