3 medium potatoes (peeled and diced)
1 can low-sodium canned tomatoes (14.5 oz Italian stewed)

Wash hands with soap and water.
Preheat oven to 350 °F.
Brown sausage and onion together in a skillet; drain.
Mix all ingredients together and place in a casserole dish.
Cover with foil and bake at 350 °F for 45 minutes.

If I make this again, I will pre-cook the vegetables, particularly the potatoes, before putting together for the oven-- as the vegetables were not cooked enough in 45 minutes. Also, I had to drain off quite a lot of the liquid after cooking in the oven. To add a little more flavor, I added (about 1/4 cup) low fat mozzarella cheese.

This is ok. Nothing holds it together so it's not a typical casserole consistency, it's just loose veggies with meat. Simple way to get lots of veggies with some flavor from the sausage.
