Italian Heritage Casserole image

Every bite of this hearty one-dish meal brings back memories of my grandmother's Italian kitchen. To this day, I can picture Grandma slicing fresh sausage, dicing crispy peppers and adding "just a pinch" of oregano. I stir up those memories often- this casserole's a favorite for family gatherings, church suppers and post-practice community choir socials.
