Potato And Sausage Casserole Pie Recipe

This hearty breakfast will fill you up all the way until lunchtime – your choice of white or sweet potatoes, loose sausage, and plenty of greens, all baked into a delicious pan of beaten eggs.

White potatoes aren’t right for everyone, but there’s nothing wrong with eating them if you do fine with them, and they’re just as nutritious as sweet potatoes (they have different nutrients, but that doesn’t make them less nutritious!)

Whichever type of potato you prefer, you’ll end up with a satisfying finished dish – use your favorite type of sausage to complement whatever type of potato you pick.

For white potatoes, bratwurst is a classic combo, and the contrast of sweet potatoes with a spicy chorizo sausage would be delicious. You can buy loose sausage in one-pound packages just like regular ground meat, or buy sausages already rolled and just take off the casings.

With no onions or garlic anywhere in it, this is a meal that people with FODMAP sensitivities can enjoy with no modification. Try making it ahead for bulk breakfasts: if you bake two, you’ll have one for breakfast today and extras to grab and go when you need something fast.
