Ugh.  Let me tell you why I'm frustrated.  At the end of Summer, I read a news article about how we were going to have an abnormally warm Fall.  So here I went out and bought a bunch of extra T-shirts for my kids that weren't covered in mud and sand and everything else from playing outside all Summer so that they had enough nice clothes for school.  Well guess what??!!! It's dropped down in the low 40's twice this week, and my kids DEFINITELY need more long sleeve shirts, NOT short sleeve. Ugh. Must have been "fake news."

But one good thing has come out of this weather.  It is casserole season, folks! And this Cheesy Sausage and Potatoes recipe is king of casseroles.  It has basically every element that you might expect from a warm cozy casserole.  Warm potatoes, gooey cheese, and smoked sausage that adds just the right amount of flavor.

The beauty of this Cheesy Sausage and Potatoes recipe is that it is so simple that you almost don't expect it to be as delicious as it is! But it is so warm and cheesy and delicious, you'll want to curl up on the couch with a blanket for seconds (and thirds!)
