Monday Night Supper

 When I was in hospital I was on a food drip for months. I loosely use the word "food" as it was just a bag of liquid full of all the right vitamins and things I needed to keep me alive! Being someone who LOVES her food (too much!) I used to fantasise about what I would eat once I was able to. Strangely enough the one thing I wanted was Heinz Spaghetti on toast and when that wonderful day of finally going home arrived, I had them for supper! I don't know why I wanted them, I hadn't eaten them for at least 35 years and unfortunately I found them disgusting!! However, while I was dreaming of more yummy things, one of my nurses gave me a wonderful sausage casserole recipe to take home with me - I think originally it was a Jamie Oliver one - and it is DELICIOUS! 


So, for those of you who enjoyed my Homity Pie recipe last week, I thought I'd share this one with you. It's very easy and quick to prepare.


STICKY SAUSAGE CASSEROLE


Ingredients:


2 X 500g  Punnets Baby Cherry Tomatoes
Packet of Sausages (I use herby Cumberlands)
2 cloves crushed garlic
Lashings of Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar
About a tablespoon of Oregano
Two sprigs of Rosemary
Salt, Pepper


Method:


Spread garlic around dish, add whole tomatoes, oil and balsamic vinegar, add oregano and mix.  Lie the sausages on the top and then season. Finally put the sprigs of rosemary on top and put in the oven (200 or Gas 5) for about half an hour. Turn sausages and then put back in for another 15 mins or so. Should be a lovely sticky rich sauce!  

Enjoy!
