Description

This hearty sausage and bean casserole is a comforting and satisfying meal, perfect for a chilly evening. The combination of savory sausages, smoky paprika, and sweet barbecue sauce creates a flavor explosion that's sure to please. Topped with creamy mashed potatoes and melted cheddar cheese, it's a dish that the whole family will love. It's also a great way to use up leftover potatoes! This casserole is easy to prepare and can be made ahead of time, making it ideal for busy weeknights. I love adding a sprinkle of fresh chives for a pop of color and flavor.
