A quick and easy family dinner recipe; Sausage & Butterbean Casserole cooked on the hob in less than 30 minutes!

Sausage & Butterbean Casserole

Looking for a quick, easy and delicious mid week meal to make for your family? Then look no further because my Sausage & Butterbean Casserole ticks ALL those boxes! I’ve been making this recipe for literally years now so I thought it was high time I actually got around to blogging it!

You guys know by now that I’m all about my speedy dinner recipes and this casserole couldn’t get much quicker or simpler. Everything is cooked on the hob in one pan with ingredients that I always have to hand.

Ingredient Substitutions

I used pork sausages for this recipe but chicken, turkey or vegetarian sausages all work really well too.

The butter beans are a great source of protein and fibre and I add in some sneaky vegetables too with some diced carrots!

Freezing & Storing

Leftovers can be be kept in a container in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheated in the microwave or on the hob.

This recipe can also be frozen in a freezer bag or container. Defrost in the fridge overnight and then reheat in the microwave or on the hob.

      Hi Kath! Yes, leftovers can be kept in a container in the fridge for up to 2 days and then reheated in the microwave or on the hob and can also be frozen in a freezer bag or container. Defrost in the fridge overnight and then reheat in the microwave or on the hob.

    Our youngest (9) is a meat and potatoes lad but he LOVES this recipe. Its really good. I add some extra veggies sometimes but cut so small he doesn’t notice. Reminds me of baked beans a bit in the final taste. I also add a knob of butter at the end to increase the buttery taste of the white beans.

    Thank you so much for this recipe! It’s super easy to make but tastes SO delicious. I made it with turkey sausages and added bacon lardons and a teaspoon of marmite. I’ll be making this every week from now on!
