Ingredients
1
pound
ground sausage
(sage, original or spicy)
1
small onion,
diced
15
ounce
can diced potatoes,
drained
2
Tablespoons
all-purpose flour
4
cups
milk
2
(15 ounce)
cans sweet cream style corn
¼
teaspoon
garlic powder
salt and pepper, to taste
(about a teaspoon of each)
1
sliced green onion
(optional, for topping)
Instructions
Over medium-high heat, brown and crumble sausage along with diced onions in a stock pot.
Cook until sausage is no longer pink. Drain excess grease.
Add meat back to pot and stir in flour. Stir well while cooking for a couple of minutes.
Then pour in milk and stir well. Keep heat on medium high.
Add cans of cream corn and diced potatoes.
Stir well and simmer (don't boil, just a gentle simmer) for about 20-25 minutes until mixture thickens.
Add garlic powder, salt & pepper to taste. It's really important that you taste it at this point. I always finds it needs a bit of salt for my tastes.
Cover and bring down temperature down to low until ready to serve.

Notes
Instead of the canned diced potatoes, you can peel and dice one large potato to substitute.
Also, if you aren't a fan of sausage, just substitute with ground beef, ground turkey or a plant based substitute.
Other topping suggestions would be cooked and crumbled bacon and a little shredded cheese.
Serve with cornbread or some crusty French bread.
