    Jazzing up sausgaes?

    OK, I have a boring packet of sausages in the freezer and I am all out of inspiration. Does anyone have any tasty ideas for things I can make out of my boring sausages and the regular groceries in the fridge and pantry?

    You could do Curried sausages, or sausages with onion gravy/bacon gravy/tomato and onion gravy? Or you could squeeze all the meat out, mince it together again, make patties and roll in crumbs for crumbed rissoles?

    I'm thinking about throwing some cooked sausages in my soup tonight, to make it a bit more hearty (and meaty). I also sometimes make a salad with it, some pasta, baby spinach, cooked sausage and other bits and pieces...maybe cheese and sweet chilli sauce and tomato and cooked garlicy mushrooms..

    I remember mum used to boil the sausages and mix them with a jar of sweet and sour sauce and then serve it with pasta, I used to love that as a kid.

    375 grams pasta - cook it
    cook sausages

    fry up some onion, capsicum, zuchini - all thinly sliced until tender. Chuck in mushies if you have them.
    Throw in basil, and a jar of pasta sauce and heat it all through, simmer about 5 mins.

    Mix pasta and the mix in a big bowl, add handful or two of grated cheese, put in a baking dish in moderate oven 25 mins. O and throw a handful of grated cheese over the top too.

    Sausage and White Bean Casserole

    Cook your sausages, slice. Fry up a sliced onion, crushed garlic, sausages (mushrooms if you like) Add 1 x can of tomatoes and 1 x can of cannellini beans, and a bit of smoked paprika. Simmer for 10-15 minutes. Serve over brown rice.

    This was far and away my favourite dish as a meat eater. And is very high fibre. (As is the rest of my life!)

    Also, +1 to sausage in soup, esp minestrone or similar.

    I sometimes make this and all of the stuff should be in your pantry or fridge hopefully :
    Easy sausage Pie

    2 tsp oil
    1 onion finely chopped or grated
    6 thin sausages
    1 carrot grated
    2 zucchini grated
    1 cup grated tasty cheese
    1/2 cup plain flour
    1 1/2 cups milk
    3 eggs

    Preheat over to 160 degrees, grease a 4cm deep 17.5cm x 24.5cm baking dish

    Heat oil in a frypan over medium heat, add onion, cook stirring often until soft, remove to a bowl and add sausages. cook sausages

    Once cooked - thinly slice the sausages.

    Arrange sausages, onion, carrot zucchini and cheese over base of dish

    Whisk flour and milk in a bowl until smooth, add eggs season with salt and pepper whisk to combine.

    Pour over sausage mix, bake for 50-60 minutes or until set.

    Hope this helps.

    I often make a stroganoff with mine as they are cheaper & we always have them in the freezer. I just fry up the sausages ( or grill), then add in fresh mushrooms & cook with some bbq sauce, worcestershire sauce & mixed herbs for flavour. Then add a tin of tomoato soup, heat up & stir in as much sour cream as you like. We then serve it with some nice pasta....yum.
    Otherwise sweet & sour sausages with creamy mash or steamed rice.

    You can't go wrong with bangers and mash!

    This is a favourite here:
    Make a tomato sauce with one tin of chopped tomatoes, one crushed clove of garlic and some thyme. Mix in four pre-cooked sausages and some dry-fried courgette strips - just peel the courgette over and over again until you get to the seeds to get loads of thin strips.

    I usually add some penne pasta to this, but it would work well on a bed of mash potato. It's really simple but very tasty. You can serve with additional veggies or salad.
