Home cooked dinner Sunday's!

When I was a little girl my mom always had dinner at 1:00 PM! If anyone had to go to mass at Noon we ate right after. She always made yummy dinners like roasts and potatoes or homemade spaghetti or BBQ chicken. We always had a wonderful meal! Today I am going to share with you a casserole that we love. Yes, we found the recipe in the Taste of Home cook book! We love Taste of Home!

This is called the Spinach Sausage Bake. You could serve this at a brunch, or for dinner. We liked either way! Mangia!~
