Beef Sausage Casserole Recipe
The weather lately has been colder and more windy than we normally have in my corner of Brittany, so we've kept fires going in the lounge fireplace to warm us and hearty meals cooking in the kitchen.
Yesterday I put together a delicious hearty beef sausage casserole and thought you might also like to try it. It's simple and we used the fresh ingredients that we picked up at my local market in Guingamp. I even tried something different by filming a little of myself making the beef casserole and sharing it on Facebook and Instagram. It was fun turning an everyday activity into a short clip and changing things up a bit in the kitchen!
