If you don’t have leftover sausages then just cook the sausages while you make the sauce.

How to make gluten free sausage casserole
Sausage casserole is an easy dish to make if you’re new to cooking.
Firstly you need to prepare the vegetables.
Start by chopping the onion finely.
If you’re not sure how to chop that onion then watch this video:
Then wash, peel and slice the carrot into thin pieces.
Finally chop your clove of garlic into fine pieces or use a garlic crusher.
Place all the prepared vegetables into a large saucepan or casserole dish with enough water to cover (and a little oil if you like). Then place the pan on a high heat with the lid on and allow the water to boil. Keep checking the water level and the softness of the vegetables. You don’t want this to boil dry and burn the veg.
Once the vegetables are soft (5-10 minutes) add the remaining ingredients.
While the vegetables are softening, place the sausages under a medium heated grill and cook as per the instructions on the packet.
Once cooked add them to the vegetable sauce and simmer on a low heat with the lid off until the sauce has thickened. If the sauce is too thick add a little more water.
What to serve with casserole
I personally like to serve my sausage casserole with cooked seasonal vegetables, mashed potato or gluten free pasta.
However here are a few other ideas for what to serve with casseroles:
Hash browns
Potato waffles
Boiled rice
Cooked quinoa
Oven chips
Homemade potato wedges
Baked beans
Home made gluten free baguette
Green salad
Corn on the cob
