A family favourite for sure, there are never any leftovers when I make this simple comforting casserole - especially
with Mr Marshall around.
I like to leave the apples in their skin and stalks to contribute to the thrown together rustic feel of this dish. A
meal I imagine that would be right at home in pioneer / frontier times while the family chopped and stacked wood for
the stove. Today this could easily be made in a crockpot or slow cooker for convenience. Just be sure to purchase the
best available sausages - it really makes all the difference.
