What you need to make Sausage, Green Bean and Potato Casserole:
1 pound sausage (Italian or breakfast)

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Hot to make it:
Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook sausage: In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned. Remove from the skillet and crumble.
Sauté vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté until softened.
Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, cubed potatoes, thawed green beans, onion, chicken broth, Parmesan cheese, flour, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat evenly.

Tips:
Don’t overcook the sausage. If the sausage is overcooked, it will be tough and dry.
