    Tried this last night. Added more veg and used chicken italian sausage. It worked out to 8 servings for us, which reduced the calorie count by half!

    Will definitely be making this again. This is an excellent base to use to create a variety of different meals.

    I absolutely LOVED this!!! I'm sure my hubby will say the same when he eats it after work. The flavor is just great. I used turkey sausage so I'm assuming the calorie count went down. Thanks! I will definitely make this again. - 3/11/13

    This is a favorite wintertime staple at my house. I add more veggies, and bake a little longer. Leftovers are delicious! - 3/1/13

    My husband loves dishes like this! He really like this and has requested that I make it again. I used a locally made "North Country Sausage" for the sausage - which is our favorite sausage. Root vegetables make this a healthier way to prepare sausage. - 9/30/10

    I added some olive oil about halfway through because it was starting to look a little dry, but this was really good! - 4/17/10

    WONDERFUL recipe. I substituted Jenni-O turkey sausage and cooked it beforehand before adding it to the recipe, which took some calories out. I cut the carrots on the bias, and used regular carrots instead of baby carrots and they were cooked to perfection. - 4/13/10

    I enjoyed the hearty dish. Simple, Easy, and tasty.
    ( wish the sausage wouldn't have so much salt) Maybe I can look for a lower sodium sausage next time.

    We weren't that impressed. It took longer than the recipe said, even after cooking for 1.5 hours I had to put the carrots in the micowave to get them tender enough for my kids to eat. Thanks, but no thanks - 11/30/09

    I made Hearty Potato and Sausage Bake this evening. It was wonderful and so simple. The only things I changed were using organic canola oil instead of butter and Kosher salt instead of regular salt. This was a winner with my family and I think it will be one for your family, too! - 3/17/09
