Ingredients

32 oz bag of cubed hash browns
14 oz kielbasa, cut into small pieces
1 small onion, diced
2 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
10.5 oz can cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

Prepare the Slow Cooker:
- Spray the inside of the slow cooker with non-stick spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
Layer the Ingredients:
- Add the hash browns, kielbasa, onion, and 2 cups of the cheddar cheese to the slow cooker. Stir the ingredients together to distribute them evenly.
Mix the Sauce:
- In a separate bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, milk, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Whisk these together until smooth. This mixture will bind the ingredients and add a creamy texture to the casserole.
Combine and Cook:
- Pour the soup mixture over the potato and sausage mix in the slow cooker. Stir everything together to ensure the ingredients are well coated.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese over the top.
Set and Forget:
- Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The cooking time might vary slightly depending on your slow cooker model. The casserole is ready when the potatoes are tender and the flavors have melded together.
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once cooked, give the casserole a gentle stir to mix in the melted cheese on top. Serve hot directly from the slow cooker.

This Slow Cooker Sausage and Potato Casserole is not just easy to make but also incredibly versatile. It’s perfect as a main dish for dinner or can serve as a fulfilling brunch.
