Polish Sausage, Potato Skillet

Beth F.'s Note:

I came up with this recipe by combining what sounded good to me from other recipies. I was trying to come up with another way to use polish sausage. It is terrific. The beans can easily be left out if you prefer.

Good, quick, easy recipe! I added a can of green beans 5 minutes before the potatoes were done. We all enjoyed it, thanks!!

This was great. Terrific for a busy weeknight. So convenient I will certainly put it on regular rotation during the school year. Had a peasant food stew delightfulness. I doubled the sausage and the mustard. And, since my fam tends to shy away from the sweet stuff, I cut the sugar a little and made sure to buy an applesauce that was not sugary.
