Sometimes you just want hearty and rich comfort food, things like gratin or casseroles. This Turkey Sausage, Mushroom and Potato Gratin is all those great things that comfort food is but just a bit lighter. Turkey sausage instead of regular and a little less cheese. You need to make changes when you can!
When you leave it in for an extra minute or two and the cheese sets up and gets nice and golden brown. Now that is comfort food. Scott had 2 servings of this gone pretty quickly, all I heard was the mmm and yum while he was enjoying his dinner. This is one of those recipes that can be easily changed with a few different spices, a different kind of cheese or even using cauliflower or parsnips.
And it gave me an excuse to break out the orange bakeware
