"From the back of a pkg of Hungry Jack Scalloped potatoes! Made this for supper tonite and it was wonderful and simple! BF had 3 helpings and DS had 2. I subbed green beans only for the veggies cause it was all I had. Yummy served with hot rolls and honey and cold applesauce."

This was very good. The only thing I changed was that I grilled some green bell peppers along with the onions. It turned out great. My wife really loved it.

Made this for dinner last night and it was wonderful. Very easy to prepare and tastes great! I used turkey sausage and omitted the butter. Thanks for posting Laurie!

I made this on 8/6/07,for myself and SO's dinner and we both really enjoyed it very much.I used the directions on the box of potatoes for the amounts of milk and water,but I think that next time I'll use the amounts listed in the recipe.As for the meat I only used 1/2 a pound of smoked sausage,and that seemed like plenty of meat for just the two of us.For the vegetables I had a few baby carrots that needed to be used,so I cut them into small pieces and added them in step 2.For the rest of the veggies I used some leftover corn,and a few frozen peas that I had.Both my SO and I really enjoyed the "slight kick" that the cayenne pepper gave this dish.This recipe thickened up really well and had a very good creamy texture.This will be made again.Thank you for posting,and "Keep Smiling:)"

I liked this recipe for it's simplicity. It went together so quick and easy! I used polish sausage and green beans for the veggies. Very tasty...didn't get as thick as I had expected, but still good! Thanks!

This was a VERY good homey meal. Aside from being incredibly simple to make, it was really fast to put together. I substituted the Kielbasa for regular beef sausage as that was what I had on hand, but that combined with the cayenne pepper added nice spice without being too hot. Next time I think I will try it with Hot Italian sausage and leave out the cayenne, just for a change. This recipe will be one I will make again and again, thanks for sharing!
