Cheesy Kielbasa Bake Recipes

KIELBASA SAUSAGE CHEESY POTATO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° and lightly spray a 13 x 9 baking dish or a 3 quart baking dish with non stick cooking spray. Set aside.
• In a Dutch oven or larger stock pot, add cut sausages with about 1/2 cup of water (might need to add more water as sausage browns. Add 1/8 of a cup at a time).
• Cook over medium heat until water is evaporated and sausage is browned a bit then add diced onions, cook for 3-4 minutes and add garlic. Cook until onions are translucent
• After sausage has browned and onions are translucent, add diced potatoes to pot.
• Pour chicken broth, heavy cream, 1/2 can of cheddar cheese soup, seasoning and pepper into pot. Stir.
• Cook over low heat just until mixture starts to boil. Turn off heat and add cheese to pot.
• Mix everything together and pour into prepared baking dish. Add additional cheddar cheese on top, if desired.
• Cover with foil and bake for 65-75 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
• Remove from oven and remove foil. Place back in the oven for 10 additional minutes.
• Carefully remove from oven and enjoy!

CHEESY KIELBASA POTATO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• *I strongly suggest partially cooking the potatoes. I used raw and baked for 1 hour and the potatoes in the center of the casserole were still slightly underdone. Stirring the casserole midway through the baking time probably would have helped. If you partially cook the potatoes, reduce casserole cooking time to 30 minutes.
• Cook On The Grill:
• Use either a flame-proof ceramic or metal (disposable is fine) baking dish. Proceed as directed except cover with aluminum foil and place on the UNLIT side of the grill for approximately 1 1/2-2 hrs. This is good prepared with other grilled foods that require indirect cooking.
• Conventional:
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a 2 1/2 quart (11×7) baking dish.
• Cut kielbasa into pieces about 1/2-inch thick. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, mix soup with milk, adding milk slowly while stirring to prevent lumps. Mix in the potatoes, pepper, caramelized onion, 1 cup of the cheese and kielbasa. Stir well.
• Turn into prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes, stirring half way through cooking time so potatoes cook evenly (see note above-I did not do this, which could account for the undercooked potatoes at the center of the casserole). However, I still suggest partial cooking of the potatoes or even using canned or leftover baked potatoes-you'll reduce the baking time too if you do this.
• Top with the remaining cheese and bake for an additional 15 minutes.

COMFORTING CHEESY KIELBASA AND POTATO BAKE

Steps:

• 1. Cut the kielbasa in half length wise and then cut into 1/2 inch slices. Place in a large bowl. You can use any other cooked sausage, andouille etc., if you want to change it up.
• 2. Cut the onion into thin slices and place in the bowl.
• 3. Peel the potatoes and cut into about half inch cubes. Place them in the bowl.
• 4. Add the salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, parsley, paprika and olive oil to the bowl. Mix well. Shred the cheddar cheese and set aside.
• 5. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 9 X 13 pan with cooking spray on the bottom and sides. Add the kielbasa and potato mixture to the pan and spread out evenly.
• 6. Cook uncovered for 35 to 45 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender, stirring every 10 minutes. When the potatoes are done, turn the oven off and add the shredded cheddar to the top. Let it sit in the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
