Farmhand Sausage and Potatoes

I love that my husband likes my cooking, and I really love that he helps me name my dishes! This is a simple recipe that I throw together when I have an hours notice for his lunch break from the farm, and he has named them Farmhand Potatoes. They are quite simply just that! Potatoes and Sausage is the basis for this recipe. Enjoy! 

Preheat oven to 425 Degrees. You will need about 8-10 potatoes depending on how many you are cooking for. I did a mix of small and medium since it is only two of us eating. Wash, peel and slice them, then place them in a 9X13 baking dish with olive oil. 

Next is the cast of Seasonings, From Left to Right in case it is too small to read.....Cayenne Pepper, Olive Oil, Black Pepper, Salt and Garlic Powder. Add the directed amount to the potatoes and toss them so all are coated evenly 

Next Add 3 TBS of Real Salted Butter like pictured above and place in the oven for 25 minutes. 

Slice your Beef Sausage, while the potatoes are cooking and place them in the baking dish with the potatoes after the first 25 minutes is done. The Sausage and the potatoes will together cook for another 25 minutes, You should use a spatula and stir them up every 10 minutes or so. This is so that the potatoes do not stick to the dish and burn. 

This is the end result: Mouth watering potatoes and beef sausage your farmhand will approve of after a long morning of feeding!
