Cassies Sausage Casserole

Not actual photo

INGREDIENTS
500-750g Sausages
1 1/2 Medium Onions
2 fairly large green apples
2 T olive oil
2 tsp curry powder
2 cans (about 440g baked beans)
1 can (400g) chopped tomatoes
2 T brown sugar


METHOD FOR SLOW COOKER
Spray slow cooker with non-stick spray and turn on to low.  Arrange the sausages in the bottom of the slow cooker.  Slice the onions and peeled apples, add with oil and curry to a frypan over moderate heat and brown until nicely coloured.  Turn off heat and add the can of baked beans. Mix well, adding brown sugar. Tip over sausages (do not stir together with sausages).  Pour can of tomatoes on top of bean mixture.  Put the lid on and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours.  Serve with rice or mashed potato.
METHOD FOR OVEN
As above but bake at 140 degrees Celsius for 6 hours in a covered casserole dish.  THESE DETAILS TBC.


TIP
You can try shaping sausage meat into patties for a variation on regular sausages, although I haven't tried this myself.  I always freeze leftovers into either kids or adult portion sizes for an easy dinner.

ZACH-ometer    He loved this pureed as a baby, and as he got older would only eat the sausages, but I'm slowly getting him to eat the sauce and the rice as well - it varies from day to day
