EASY SAUSAGE CASSEROLE RECIPE WITH MOCK POTATOES

-
I wanted to serve my family an alternative potato dish this Thanksgiving. When I used diced daikon radish in a low carb clam chowder, I wondered how it would be in something like scalloped potatoes.

Since the Japanese daikon radish has very little flavor, I thought an additional item should be added to the dish. We have lots of venison sausage in the freezer so it made sense to use some with the daikon.

Although I was seeking a scalloped potato dish, the result was more like a casserole. That’s why I’m calling it an easy sausage casserole with mock potato.


I thought of calling the dish a sausage potato casserole, but that’s a little misleading. Although the radish does taste like potato, technically it’s not.

We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas. We enjoyed watching Caleb wake up on Christmas morning to open presents. Of course, he loved the boxes and paper just as much as the gifts. We spent the rest of the day in the kitchen and relaxing with family. It was a perfect day.

If you still have family and friends visiting and are looking for an easy recipe to feed your guests, make this Hillshire Farm Sausage and Potato Bake. Josh made this Hillshire Farm recipe last week and loved it. He loved it so much that he is making it again to feed our family that is visiting. It is sure to be a crowd pleaser!

For the recipe, you will need Hillshire Farm Turkey Smoked Sausage. The Smoked Sausage is made with quality cuts of turkey and slow-cooked natural flavors. We like to keep this sausage in our fridge. It is great for making a quick and easy meal.

  • 3 tablespoons flour

The BEST Basic Pancake Recipe

-
Image
For years, I used a box mix to make pancakes. It was easy — just add water (and maybe an egg, depending on the fanciness of the mix) and pour the batter on the griddle. Then the internet came along and showed me that I could make pancakes from scratch and at a fraction of the cost of a mix. And, surprise! The pancakes actually taste better. First, we must master the basic pancake. And while whipping up a batch takes no time at all, there are some rules to pancake creation to make sure your pancakes turn out fluffy and delicious every time: Ingredients 2 c. all purpose flour 1 T. baking powder 3 T. white sugar 1/2 t. salt 2 eggs 1-1/2 c. milk 2 t. vanilla 1 T. butter, vegetable oil or coconut oil Instructions: Preheat a griddle. If you’re using an electric griddle, preheat to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl add flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Mix well. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add eggs, milk and vanilla. Stir to combine. Remember,
