AUTUMN SAUSAGE CASSEROLE (IN THE CROCK POT )



Autumn Sausage Casserole (In the Crock Pot ) image

Easy peasy recipe adapted from A Year of Slow Cooking. After looking through the reviews at her blog, I see that cooks who used a 6.5 quart crock pot had problems with this cooking too much. My crock pot is a 4 quart size and I have not experienced that problem. I do think the stirring is a good suggestion and have changed the directions accordingly. You could use any sausage you want but the sausage does need to be partially cooked or smoked. Try chicken with artichokes, chicken with apple, kielbaska, Italian, andouille, or whatever sausage your family enjoys. This uses LEFTOVER rice so plan for that. I love leftovers. :) This could be gluten free if you are very careful with your choice of sausage.

Time 4h20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch pieces or 1 1/2 cups carrots
3 cups cooked rice
1 lb sausage, sliced into bite size pieces
2 large apples, chopped (no need to peel)
1 cup yellow onion, chopped
1/2 cup raisins
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon cumin (optional)
1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional)
1/2 teaspoon allspice
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup chicken broth
15 ounces black beans, drained

Steps:

  • If you are going to use uncooked sausage, brown on the stove top, and drain before adding to the crockpot.
  • Otherwise, line your 4 quart sized crock pot with a slow cooker liner, dump ingredients into the crock, and stir well.
  • Cover and cook on low for 3 1/2 to 4 hours, or until the orange vegetable is tender.
  • STIR once during the cooking time. I have not made this on high but am guessing an hour with more frequent stirring.

Categories     Stew

Time 7h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb sausage, any flavor
1 large apple, chopped, no need to peel
1 yellow onion, chopped
1/2 cup chopped carrot
3 cups already cooked long-grain rice
1/2 cup raisins
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup chicken broth or 1/3 cup water

Steps:

  • The Directions.
  • The amount of ingredients fit nicely in a 4 quart crockpot. I'd say this comfortably feeds a family of 4-5 with a bit of leftovers. If you have a large family or teenagers, add more rice and sausage. It's a pretty easy recipe to adapt to your needs.
  • If you are going to use uncooked pork sausage, I'd recommend browning on the stove top, and draining before adding to the crockpot.
  • Otherwise, dump all the ingredients into the crock, and stir well.
  • Cover and cook on low for 5-7 hours, or on high for 3-4. You're really only heating through, and allowing the vegetables to soften.
  • This will not stick together like a gloppy casserole; it has the consistency of fried rice. Use bowls to serve rather than plates.

I usually shy away from making up recipes myself, but I threw caution to the wind when I had some sausages on hand and couldn't find a recipe I liked for them. The result was surprisingly good so I decided to post my experiment :)
