You know Dollar General is more than just a place you can pick up cosmetics and candy!! Did you know you can get everything you need at Dollar General to make my Lumber Jack Crock Pot Casserole?? And make dinner the easy way!!! I love using my Crock Pot!! Fix it and forget it! In 5 to 6 hours you have a yummy delicious meal ready for your whole family!!
I was able to find ALL my ingrediants at Dollar General!!!
Dollar General has an fantastic selection of both shelf stable products and fresh products!! I was able to purchase cheddar cheese and smoked sausage for my LumberJack Casserole!!
While I prepared my sauce and grilled the sausage I let the dehydrated potatoes soak in boiling water to soften them up just a bit.
I mixed up the sauce and browned the sausage
Then after draining the water from the potatoes it was just a matter of layering the ingrediants in the crock pot!!
This casserole was a huge hit with Mr.Pinkcakeplate who is a “meat and potatoes” kinda guy!! And I loved it because it was gooey with cheese!! YUMMMM!!
Here is the recipe:
Lumberjack Casserole
2 15oz cans Clover Valley Cream of Mushroom Soup
2 Boxes Clover Valley Au gratin Potatoes
2 C Clover Valley Chicken Broth
1 Can Clover Valley Evaporated Milk
1t Seasoned Salt
1t ground black pepper
1T Worstershire Sauce
1t Garlic powder
2 C. grated Clover Valley Cheddar cheese
1 14oz Smoked Sausage sliced
1T Olive Oil
4C boiling water
Place dehydrated potatoes in boiling water while preparing the sauce and browning the sausage.
In a bowl mix together the two seasoning packets from the au gratin potatoes, chicken broth, both cans of soup, evaporated milk, spices and worsteshire sauce. Set aside. In a sauté pan heat the olive oil and brown sausage slices on both sides.
Drain water from potatoes. Place half of potatoes in crock pot and pour ½ of sauce over potatoes. Layer ½ of sausage over potatoes and sauce, sprinkle 1 cup of cheddar cheese over top of sausage. Repeat with remaining ingredients this will be very soupy and loose but will thicken as it cooks. Cook on high for 4-6 hours or on low for 8-10hours. When done you can sprinkle more cheese on top if you want it really cheesy!! Enjoy!
