Crock Pot Sausage and Potatoes
Plus, as a Momma, I want him to grow up to be able to properly cook for himself and his family. He’s not super interested in cooking but it’s an important skill that he needs to know like doing laundry, cleaning the house and making sure his feet don’t stink!
This meal is SO good! It’s creamy and so, so flavorful! There are lots of ways you can change this up to make it just how your family would enjoy it. For example, you could use hot dogs in this instead of sausage. You can also leave the onions out if your kiddos would balk at seeing those in there. And don’t let the cream of mushroom soup scare you off. I hate mushrooms. They are so gross to me. But I love the cream of mushroom soup in this – weird, right? I would not substitute it and my husband (who also doesn’t like mushrooms) had no idea we even used the cream of mushroom soup in this. He gobbled it up! Plus, you could add in other veggies your family enjoys in this. The Little Potato creamer potatoes are packed with nutrition all on their own. I like using these Terrific Trio varietals because they add such pretty color and flavor. But you could certainly use the Baby Boomer yellow creamer potatoes. The cajun seasoning adds just a small kick of flavor. You can half that amount if anyone in your family is sensitive to pepper.

July 20, 2016 at 11:06 pmcan something else be used instead of cream mushroom ugh
Brandie says
July 21, 2016 at 12:29 amI really wouldn't to be honest. I think cream of chicken or other cream soups would not add the same flavor. We don't like mushrooms and we loved this!

July 20, 2016 at 8:38 pmFor the sausage, is that a sausage that comes "fully cooked" or is it uncooked sausage?
Brandie says
July 21, 2016 at 12:30 amSorry, I should have been more specific. It is the cooked, smoked sausage like Hillshire Farms, Johnsonville or Eckrich (kielbasa or smoked sausage work good)

July 20, 2016 at 11:12 pmWhat can I use if I can't find the bag of potatoes?
Brandie says
July 21, 2016 at 12:31 amThey are sold at Wal-Mart & Sam's Club. 🙂 You can use smaller potatoes (like new potatoes) in this.

October 18, 2016 at 10:38 pmWhat do you serve this with?
Brandie says
October 19, 2016 at 7:44 amHi Lelania – usually some sort of steamed green veggie (like broccoli or green beans) and/or a salad.

October 1, 2017 at 3:28 pmCan this be made in bulk to freeze? Added white rice to mine, cooking now and smells amazing, cannot wait to try it
Morgan says
October 9, 2017 at 12:39 pmDo you think peeled and cubed russet potatoes would work instead of the little potatoes? Forgot to grab them at the store, and planned this for supper tonight!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
October 9, 2017 at 12:45 pmHey Morgan! Absolutely!

January 22, 2018 at 9:27 amI tried these in my pressure cooker plus & they were amazing! They were so good that my kids wanted me to cook it for dinner again the next day, just so their Dad could try it. I’m a busy Mom of 11 & I’m always looking for ways to lighten my load. This recipe does just that. It’s so simple, yet so delicious.
This was my first time of being on your site & now I’ve saved so many of your recipes to try.
I didn’t have the baby potatoes so I just diced the larger ones that I had. I don’t have a slow cooker but I do have the power cooker Plus and decided to give it a try. I couldn’t have been happier with the results.
I tripled the recipe of course. Lol
Most of my boys are well over 6ft 3 & it takes a lot to feed them all.
I just diced the potatoes, and cut the sausages. I sauteed the sausages for about 1 minute then added the cubed potatoes and the cream of mushroom soup. I added my seasonings and half a cup of water. I set my pressure cooker to 10 minuteso & in 10 minutes, it was cooked to perfection.
I didn’t change a thing about the recipe, only the cooking method & it was awesome.
It’s not always easy to satisfy 7 boys & a pickey 3 year old girl, but this recipe was a hit! Thank you.

January 24, 2018 at 9:47 amYour feedback is SO helpful! I have this recipe on my list to convert to a pressure cooker recipe. Your tips are so helpful for when I make it. Thanks again!

February 4, 2018 at 6:46 pmI make this a little differently and this is the recipe I used for this – and Wow – is it ever good. Even freezes well and I cook it on low – 6-8 hours. Yum. It has a few more spices for flavor in it but they are both good recipes.
• 3-4 red potatoes 1 package Polska Kielbasa
• 4 ounces cream cheese (softened) 1 can Healthy Request Cream of Celery soup
• 1-ounce dry ranch dressing mix 1 small red onion, finely diced
• 1 clove of garlic, minced ½ teaspoon of ground pepper
• 1 Tablespoon minced chives
I just cut the potatoes to bite sized pieces and leave the skin on – Yum!!!

Brandie @ The Country Cook says
May 14, 2018 at 3:07 pmHi Lori! I have only ever made this exactly how it is written out here so I can’t really speak to how it would work with changes. There is no extra water added to this particular recipe. If you try it out and play with the recipe some, let me know how it turned out for you!

September 22, 2018 at 8:41 amTo all of you concerned about the cream of mushroom soup, my neice HATES mushrooms but absolutely loves this recipe. Do not despair if you have mushroom haters. They will gobble it up.
April says
January 16, 2019 at 10:28 amHi. If I was to cut the potatoes smaller, would it be ready faster than 4 hours or could I cook it on high?
