Creamy, cheesy, and savory with sweet and hot Italian sausage.
However, many recipes never make it to this site because often they just aren’t good enough.
In fact, some are downright awful.

This is one of those recipes.
Not a big one for casseroles, I was surprised at how tasty this Potato and Sausage Casserole was.
Place potato chunks in a large pot and add enough cold water to cover by 1 inch.
Bring the potatoes to boil over high heat, then lower heat to a simmer.
Cook until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large skillet on medium high heat.
Remove from pan and let cool.
Wrap in paper towels and squeeze out liquid.
Roughly chop the spinach.
Wipe any remaining moisture out of the skillet.
Transfer the sausage to a bowl.
Leave the fat in the pan.
You’ll need 1 tablespoon of fat in the pan.
Heat on medium high and add the thinly sliced red onions.
Cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook a minute more.
Add the onions and garlic to the bowl with the sausage.
Stir the spinach and 1/2 cup of the cheese into the potato mixture.
Transfer potato-spinach mixture to prepared baking dish.
Top with sausage-onion mixture and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.
Bake until potatoes are very hot and cheese is golden and bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes.
Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
