10/25/2012- Cheesy Potato and Sausage Casserole

I don't know that I've ever made an actual casserole before. I mean, I have the dishes and I have recipes, but I don't think I've actually done in an actual casserole dish. This one, though, was one that had to be made. It's a potato and sausage casserole and O.M.G. is it delicious. Aaron and I had to fight ourselves from eating it all that night. Noah, not the biggest fan, but then again he doesn't like "saucy" things, especially on meat.

The prep time on here is a lie. I think they assume you already have potatoes boiled and peeled and sausage cooked. Otherwise, how else can you prep this all in 20min? I boiled the potatoes and cooked the sausage at the same time, but even then, I had to cut the potatoes and peel them. You also have to make the cheese mixture, which is a good chunk of time.

I wish I had taken pictures of the process of it (I'm making it again soon, so I will gladly take more photos). This crappy cellphone picture does not do this thing justice. It makes the house smell amazing and tastes like heaven.

10/15/2012 - CrockPot Breakfast Casserole

I decided wanted to start doing 5 new recipes a week. I was going to do 5 dinner items, 2 desserts and 4 new things for Noah, but really, I can't. It was a good goal, but with Mason, it can't happen right now. SO, I do what I can, when I can, when it comes to the crafts for Noah. But, I have been good about doing at least 5 new things for food each week.

It was simple eggs, hash browns, cheese, sausage and some milk. It did say to cook on low for 8-10 hrs, but after 5 on low and 30 min on high, the sides were ALL burned. There wasn't a spot left that was touching the crock pot that wasn't burned. The inner part was delicious once some salt was put on. I imagine it'd taste good with hot sauce or salsa for those who enjoy it.

Noah even ate it (multiple times), so you know it must have been good!
