Sausage and Potato Casserole Recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1 pound of ground sausage (Italian or breakfast sausage)
• 4 cups of diced potatoes (or frozen hash browns)
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2 cups of shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
• 1 can of cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
• 1/2 cup of sour cream
• 1/4 cup of milk
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Green onions, chopped for garnish
• Butter for greasing the dish

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a large baking dish with butter.
2. Cook Sausage: In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned. Break it up into small pieces as it cooks. Drain excess fat and set aside.
3. Prepare Potatoes: If using fresh potatoes, boil them until slightly tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside. If using frozen hash browns, no need to precook.
4. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the cooked sausage, potatoes, chopped onion, shredded cheese, soup, sour cream, and milk. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Assemble: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
7. Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
