CrockPot Autumn Sausage Casserole

This is like autumn in a bowl. It’s so good and makes your house smell fantastic!

Ingredients:

1 pound sausage
1 large, or 2 small apples, chopped (no need to peel)
1/2 yellow onion, chopped
1/2 cup chopped carrots
3 cups already cooked long-grain rice
1/2 cup raisins
1 T dried parsley flakes
1 T brown sugar
1/2 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/3 cup chicken broth or water

Instructions:
If you are going to use uncooked pork sausage, I’d recommend browning on the stove top, and draining before adding to the crockpot.

Otherwise, dump all the ingredients into the crock, and stir well.

Cover and cook on low for 5-7 hours, or on high for 3-4. You’re really only heating through, and allowing the vegetables to soften.

This will not stick together like a gloppy casserole; it has the consistency of fried rice. Use bowls to serve rather than plates.

The amount of ingredients fit nicely in a 4 quart crockpot. I’d say this comfortably feeds a family of 4-5 with a bit of leftovers. If you have a large family or teenagers, add more rice and sausage. It’s a pretty easy recipe to adapt to your needs.

What did the family think? This is SO delicious! Hubby and I couldn’t get enough of this. The boys liked the sausage…they aren’t big rice fans.
