The subtle spices in the pork sausage give this dish a distinctive flavor that my family has loved for years. Not only is this hearty casserole a great main dish on you dinner table, it reheats nicely.

This is comfort food at it's best! I did modify the recipe a bit, and added a 1/2 teaspoon each of garlic powder and onion powder to the skillet when browning the sausage. I also used 2 cans of the mushroom soup, 1 cup of milk, and 4 cups of sliced potatoes. I did not add any chopped onion, nor did I add any salt to the soup mixture; especially since I already added onion powder to the sausage when browning it, also because the sausage I used already had onion and salt in it. I layered the indredients into an ungreased 8x12-inch Anchor Hocking Glass Baking Dish, starting first layer with half the sausage, poured a fourth of the soup mixture over the sausage, then added half of the sliced potatoes, (and seasoned the potatoes with a bit of black pepper), poured a fourth of the soup mixture over the potates, added the rest of the browned sausage, then sparingly added a small amount of the soup mixture over the sausage, then added the remaining sliced potatoes (and seasoned the potatoes with a bit of black pepper), then poured the remaining soup mixture over all. I baked the casserole for 1 hour and 30 minutes (to which the potatoes were done baking). I then topped the casserole with just 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese. The 1 cup of shredded cheese was more than enough cheese for this casserole. Also, with the extra added cup of sliced potatoes, I would say this makes exactly 6 servings. Since I added another can of soup, plus a bit more milk, this casserole was nice and creamy, and it was still creamy when leftovers were reheated in the microwave. This is one casserole I think I could eat at least once a week, as that's how good it is! I really think this recipe deserves more than 5 stars.

My whole family LOVED this recipe. It was so good. I used lean turkey and didn't think it was oily at all. The only change I made was that I diced and boiled my potatoes first so I only had to bake it about 10 minutes to melt the cheese.This will be my new favorite.

I loved this...I was a bit sceptical after reading a few other reviews, but my whole family Loved this recipe. I used Jenny-O lean sausage and I didn't think it was greasy or oily at all. The only changes I made was I diced my potatoes and boiled the first, so I only had to bake it for about 12 minutes to melt the cheese. Next time I think I will add some green pepper too. Yummy.

It was wonderful!!! My family really enjoyed it and asked me to double the recipe. I will look into ways to make it without soooo much oil. I also cut down the amount of cheese and it was still delicious.

I used a pound of Amylu Apple & Gouda Cheese Chicken Sausage Links. They're pre-cooked so I just peeled off the casing and chopped them into bits. I used a well-seasoned 10-inch cast-iron skillet to bake with and everything turned out great. Next time I'll cut down a bit on the salt, maybe 1/4 tsp. There was no greasiness, of course, using the chicken sausage. As I write this the taste of the dish is still in my mouth and it's a very good taste. We'll get 4 servings out of this, not 6, after all, we're Mid westerners, not Vietnamese. ;)

I knew ahead of time that this wouldn't be the healthiest of meals, but one must splurge every once in a while! While the flavor was fine, it was an extremely greasy meal. I drained the sausage on paper towels but I wish I would have squeezed out the extra grease (I used reduced fat sausage). I cut back the salt and used less cheese on top. I had to bake mine for an extra 45 minutes as I used a deep casserole dish and it took longer for the potatoes to soften. I suggest using a dish that is more shallow and wide than deep and tall. Broccoli was a great side companion!

I'm not a big fan of sausage so this recipe surprised me at how good it was. It is a bit salty however. I've served it to friends and received a thumbs up.

I will definitely make this again, but I will cut the salt & cheese in half. There is really no need for as much as the recipe calls for.

Fixed this past weekend for grandkids. Cut back on the onions and that was all. They scarfed it down, bit time! Big hit at Papa's house!

I haven't made this yet but I think I would saute the onions and add some cheese after the first layeringl

Potato sausage casseroles are a favourite in our home and this one is simply delicious. It's also incredibly easy to make and is a keeper, for sure. One we'll be making many more times, as my family simply loves this recipe.

Very good, my husband loved it! I added a can of mixed veggies and half of a yellow onion to the mix.
