Creamy 5-Ingredient Sausage Potato Casserole Perfection

Sausage Potato Casserole

This easy weeknight dinner idea is packed with smoky sausage, tender potatoes, and cheesy goodness—perfect for when you need a no-fuss family meal!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 14 oz smoked sausage (like kielbasa), sliced into rounds
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried parsley (plus more for garnish)
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil for sautéing

Instructions

  1. In a pan, heat a little olive oil and cook the sausage until lightly browned. Add onions and garlic, cooking until soft.
  2. Boil the sliced potatoes in salted water for about 5–6 minutes until slightly tender (not fully cooked).
  3. In a greased baking dish, layer half the potatoes, then half the sausage-onion mix, and a bit of cheese. Repeat.
  4. In a bowl, mix heavy cream, milk, paprika, parsley, salt, and pepper. Pour it evenly over the casserole.
  5. Cover with foil and bake at 375°F for 30 minutes. Remove foil, add more cheese on top if desired, and bake uncovered another 10–15 minutes until bubbly and golden.

Notes

  • You can use any type of smoked sausage for this recipe.
  • For a crispier top, broil for 2-3 minutes after baking.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
