My Ninja slow cooker is one of my favorite kitchen tools. I love the non-stick coating! This one has so many possibilities and uses!

“I absolutely love this recipe! It is so simple to make and tastes delicious. The first time I made it my husband walked through the door after a long day at work and said “Wow. That smells amazing”. Then he ended up eating the majority of it. You have made this family very satisfied and I will definitely be making this a meal for the rest of our lives. Thank you so much!!!”

Tips for Making Crockpot Sausage and Potatoes:
- Use a smoky pork sausage. These are plentiful in the grocery stores where I live.
- If you aren’t a fan of cream of mushroom, you can try subbing cream of chicken.
- Some readers like to add shredded to cheese to this recipe.

And tell me I am not the only person that feels so organized and prepared when I have something cooking in my slow cooker? Surely not! I love that feeling of knowing supper is done!! And here lately we stay so busy all week, just about everyday is a good day for the crockpot!

We served these sausage and potatoes with corn-on-the-cob, which my kids LOVE! Nothing better to these Louisiana folks than sausage, corn, and potatoes!

I am so making this this weekend. But no cream of mushroom, I think I’ll use cream of onion. Thank you so so so much for the recipe!!
This was pretty good comfort food
thank you for sharing
I made this recipe last week! It is delicious! Thank you for this recipe!
Came out delicious, followed recipe and took advice of a couple others. Added little chicken broth, sautéed onions and sausage first, added sour cream. Used pressure cooked and was good to go in less than 1 minutes. So creamy and cheesy’
The recipe was wonderful! I used my Ninja Foodi and sautéed my sausage first then I added a cup of chicken broth in addition to the other ingredients and pressure cooked on high for 5 minutes with a natural release. The frozen hash browns were perfect.
I tried it both ways and this was definitely easier but equally delicious.
Thank you so much for this recipe ,My family enjoyed this so much they had seconds and I finished it the next day ! It feels so good to eat healthy meals for a change
Great to hear Dandre!

That sounds great! Thanks for visiting Felipa!
I am wondering if this would be good with cheddar cheese soup, instead of cream of mushroom? No on here likes the mushrooms. lol
I have not tried cheddar cheese soup. I often recommend cream of chicken if you don’t like cream of mushroom. Thanks for visiting Crystal!

Hi Cindy! That is so awesome to hear! Thanks for letting me know!
Can I substitute the soup for water & bouillon? My hubby says no to recipes with the soups.
Hi Monique! Yes, I think that would work fine.
Boy, am I late to the party! I made this last week and my hubby asked me yesterday when I was going to make it again! So off to the grocery I went. I made it exactly as your recipe and it was soooo good! Today I’m fixing it again, but I’m topping it off with some boudin that I had waiting in my freezer. Love me some boudin!
Hi Barbara! So glad you gave it a try! We love this one too!
So, I just made this with conecuh sausage, an Alabama stable. It was a little thin, and I had some shredded mozzarella..OMG SO GOOD!
Hi Jaren,
I first tried this in 2018, and wrote to tell you how much I enjoyed your recipe. Still one of my go-to recipes, and I’ve taken to freezing a few containers of it to have later on. It’s a great lunch or dinner on a cold or rainy day! During the winter, I make it once a month. I’ve told family & friends about this, and just shared the recipe with my auto mechanic!
