Slow Cooker Sausage & Potatoes I
Excellent and spruced up a bit with cheese if you like. I made this on 17 Aug 2016. Photos added and the recipe modified slightly. Links to the shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 5 links spicy smoked sausage, sliced into 1/4 inch pieces
- 1 large onion, quartered then sliced
- 6-8 small potatoes, washed, skin on, cut into large chunks
- 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup, OR make from a shortcut
- 1/2 teaspoon Cajun spice mix, OR make from a shortcut, or to taste
- 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded, optional
Instructions
- Place the sausage, onion, and potatoes in your slow cooker.
- Add the Cajun spice mix and the can of soup, mix, then cover 7-8 hours on Low setting or until the potatoes are cooked.
- When the potatoes are cooked, you can serve at this point, or if you are using the cheese (recommended), add the cheese and mix, cover and cook for another 20 minutes, then serve. This photo shows I added cheese and is after the 20 more minutes of cooking.
Notes
The sausage would cost about 150 Baht/500 grams (this is about 5 large links). This makes the dish to about 55 cents per serving for 8 servings. If you make the soup from the shortcut here you have more savings. If you use the cheese, one block (250 grams) is 180 Baht. This increases the price per serving to $1.21. Overall, a reasonable price for a filling meal.
Variant, add sliced or chopped mushroom.
