Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb kielbasa sausage, sliced
- 4 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil (for greasing the baking dish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease your casserole dish with olive oil.
- In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes, sliced kielbasa, chopped onion, garlic powder, milk, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly for an even distribution.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Top generously with shredded cheese, ensuring every corner is covered.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the potatoes are tender.
- Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For a crispier top, consider broiling the casserole for the last 2-3 minutes. You can prepare this dish ahead of time, just increase the baking time by 5-10 minutes if baking from the refrigerator.
