#2185 - Sharp Cheese Sausage Casserole

(by Shirley McNevich)

1 1/2 lbs. smoked sausage (removed from casings OR cut into bite sized pieces after browning)
1 - 8oz. sharp cheese (shredded)
1 cup sour cream
1/2 of a small onion (grated)
1 or 2 TBSP chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
6 medium red potatoes (washed, peeled, cooked until tender, cooled and cut into bite sized pieces)
milk (if necessary)

Cut the sausage into coin shaped pieces. In a skillet over medium heat add sausage and a little water--cook/stir until browned, then drain the sausage and cut into bite sized pieces. In a large bowl add drained sausage, shredded sharp cheese, sour cream, grated onions, parsley, salt and pepper--stir to mix. If it seems too thick add a little milk and stir again. In a greased casserole dish make multiple layers of the sausage mixture and the potato pieces. Bake (covered) at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Stir well before serving.
