Sausage Potato Supper
One Saturday night a few years ago, I came up with this dish on the spur of the moment. It was dinnertime, and I had to use what I had on hand. It's been a hit with my family ever since. —Nancy Russell, Englewood, Colorado

This is a great and easy recipe. I did not have red potatoes, so I used russet potatoes, but I followed the recipe and it worked great. It was delicious and my husband loved it.
This is so great it is in my regular rotation, I lighten it up sometimes by using a turkey sausage. Great flavor especially by using fresh garlic instead of garlic powder or salt.
Nice combo. I always add some onion, though.
Quick and easy comfort food dinner -- the family loved it! I doubled the recipe and there were no leftovers.
It was good - nothing stellar but still a good comfort dish for really anytime of year.
Reminded me of a recipe my mother made years ago (60 or more) and she called it a depression food. Her recipe was with potatoes and hotdogs, but the idea is the same. Seems what goes around comes around with current staples. Thanks for a good meal full of good memories!
I was 7 or 8 and it was my turn to come up with dinner. I thought of this, along with onions and bell peppers plus other things. I am now almost 59.
I make a version of this recipe, using hot Italian sausage instead of smoked sausage, which revs up the flavor considerably. I also add some red peppers for more color as well as flavor. This basic recipe is a good base for just about any seasoning you wish to add to suit your particular tastes.
It was simple and easy.. We used chicken sausage.. It is a bit bland... I will add more spices next time I make it.
Even with the cheese, this recipe is bland as hell. You have absolutely no seasoning. And no, salt and pepper don't count. Its not bad, its just boring. I did this recipe with saut?ed sweet onions and garlic and some fresh chopped basil, a little Italian seasoning and I replaced the butter with garlic olive oil. Not difficult at all. And for an extra kick of flavor, you could boil your potatoes in chicken broth.
