POLENTA SAUSAGE CASSEROLE


Posted by PicasaIf I do say myself this is one yummy casserole.
The sauce was made with the fresh tomatoes that I froze last year, onions, garlic and fresh herbs and seasonings. All was pureed after cooking.  This sauce was outstanding, rich, red and fresh tasting.  The photo top right was what I sauteed to put in the casserole, which consisted of green peppers, red peppers, and a anihiem peppers and turkey kielbasa you could any sausage you like. Bottom left is the finished casserole and right on the bottom is my dish of food before digging in.
Ingredients.
1 roll of polenta sliced
cooked sausage of your choice sliced
marinara sauce(if you buy a jar of sauce you can just use it right from the jar and add whatever spices and herbs you prefer if any.)
peppers, onions, garlic,
fresh thyme, basil, oregano, and whatever other Italian seasonings you prefer. 
1 package of shredded Italian cheese mix. Make sure the mix has mozzarella in it. This make the topping cheesy good like pizza.

In a sprayed casserole dish add the sliced polenta cover the bottom of the casserole.
Next add the sausage and peppers then the sauce and top with shredded cheese.
Bake at 350 degree's uncovered for 35 minutes or until the cheese is all bubbly and slightly browned. Then let sit for fifteen minutes to settle before dishing up.
Serve with a crusty loaf of bread to dredge up all the good sauce.
Yummy!


Well that is about it for today. I need to run several errands this morning and pick up staples at Trader Joe's. I love that store so many things are wonderful buys as well as good products.


Have a great day.
