Baked bean, veggie, sausage and cornbread casserole

Baked bean, veggie, sausage cornbread casseroleI was looking around the web for something like this and found a few similar recipes, but most used hotdogs and none had any veggies in them. So I came up with this…turned out quite well.

 

  • 4 sausages sliced into rounds, I used tomato basil chicken sausages
  • 1 zucchini, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 large can baked beans
  • 1 can corn

For the Cornbread topping:The cornbread batter

  • 1 cup corn meal
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1-2 Tbs sugar
  • 1 Tbs baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 Tbs oil
  • 1 1/4 cup milk

Ready for the cornbread toppingPreheat oven to 400F. In a large dutch oven, saute the sausage until cooked through (if not already fully cooked) and starting to brown.  Add the zucchini and green pepper and cook a few minutes longer. Add the can of baked beans and about 1/2 the can of corn. Stir everything together.

In a bowl mix the dry ingredients for the cornbread. Add the wet ingredients and the other half of the can of corn. Mix the cornbread batter and pour on top of the sausage, bean and veggie mixture. Put in the oven and bake until the cornbread topping is cooked through, about 40 minutes. Cool a bit and serve.
