Potato Sausage Casserole

I'm back after a bit of silence.  Hope you had a nice holiday-- good luck beating my dream Disneyland vacation!  Not to brag- but it was AWESOME! And hope you are ready for some yummy things to come this year.  This certainly doesn't seem like the "light" way to kick off the new year, but lets just start with delicious and go from there, shall we?  This was a delicious casserole that wasn't as time consuming as I thought it would be.  This one is kind of a "Man Food" recipe.  Doug loved it. :)  Need I say more?
