Lentil and Polish Sausage Casserole image

We like lentils, and this recipe is fast, easy and cheap. I bought the sausage for 99 cents at the local Canned Foods Warehouse (aka Rainbow). You can use hot sausage or mild. I usually make this with half red and half brown lentils for the texture, but you can use all of one kind. I imagine this could be made in a crockpot, I just haven't done it. Serve with a fresh salad.

I'm not a big fan of lentils, but this casserole was surprisingly good. The sausage and sauce were really flavorful.
