This is plain and simple comfort food - without all the fuss! I have made this many a time when I came home from work too tired to cook, but still needed to get a meal on the table. It is really quite good, and after taking a few minutes to brown the sausage, you can sit down and rest while your meal finishes cooking! I usually just heat up a can of vegetables with this, and maybe some brown-and-serve rolls, to make the entire meal quick and easy.
