This week I am sharing an amazing, easy Sausage Casserole recipe. All you have to do is roughly fry everything off, and stick it in the oven! I also love this recipe because it is packed with fibre which is essential for digestion, glucose control and keeping the microflora healthy in the gut.
I have put some of my favourite vegetables in the ingredients list, but feel free to use any vegetables of your choice and preference. I also tend to serve this dish with either roast potatoes or brown rice.
So keep reading for the recipe and macros, make sure you give this Sausage Casserole a try!
