Sausage & Potato Slow Cooker Supper Recipe

The busier life gets, the more I use my slow cooker.  I like meals that taste baked, but are actually made in the slow cooker which is a very easy method of cooking.  This casserole bakes slowly with very little moisture.  I was skeptical, at first, because this recipe didn’t call for any liquid in the slow cooker.  But, I gave it a try, and I’m so glad I did.  The edges browned beautifully giving the dish a crispy texture.  This recipe allows for substitutions, too.  Use your favorite “cream of” soup; use ground beef or turkey instead of sausage; use unpeeled or peeled potatoes; vary the cheese using Swiss or spice it up by using pepper Jack. This is our favorite  Sausage & Potato Slow Cooker Supper .

Have fun experimenting with different tastes until you find the one that is uniquely your family’s favorite. We make this recipe all the time because everyone seems to love it. It is a great recipe that freezes well. I find that having a recipe that you can pop in the slow cooker that is this satisfying and healthy is important and necessary in our fast society.
