Crock pot smoked sausage and hashbrown casserole is a simple cheesy sausage and potato recipe that is a great weeknight meal in my beloved casserole crock pot. I literally got a text one afternoon asking for my crock pot smoked sausage and potatoes recipe. I thought I don't have one. How is this possible? So, I sent her to my crock pot ham and scalloped potatoes recipe and quickly created my own crockpot smoked sausage and hashbrown casserole.
You will want to put this on the menu at your house this week. And if you still do not have a casserole crock pot, buy one. Right now.
Crock Pot Smoked Sausage Hashbrown Casserole Ingredients
The ingredients are staples in our house. I have frozen hash browns, sour cream, onions, cream of mushroom soup, smoked sausage and shredded cheese every day of the week. Let's be honest, most days I could probably make four or five of these casseroles.
How to make crockpot smoked sausage and hashbrown casserole
I keep the hash browns on the counter for about 30 minutes before making this casserole. It allows me to break it up more easily for the casserole. When I am ready to make the casserole, I dice the onion, slice the smoked sausage, and melt the butter and get everything mixed together. I prefer using the Progresso cream of mushroom soup since it is gluten-free and has larger chunks of mushrooms.
I actually grease the crock pot for this recipe before pouring the mixed together ingredients into the casserole crockpot. Once you have the casserole poured into the crock pot, top with additional shredded cheese on top of the casserole.
Cook the casserole on low for 4 hours or high for 2-3 hours. The casserole will be bubbly around the edges. You will want to check the middle of the casserole to make sure it is also piping hot too.
Tips for make Crock Pot Smoked Sausage and Hashbrown Casserole
