Spicy Butter Bean and Vegan Sausage Casserole
This is such a simple recipe but it’s one that I turn to time and time again. I love a good casserole and this one is no exception. The delicious buttery taste from the beans and the texture from the sausages make for a wonderful combination. Add in the delicate spicing and you have a dish that is truly wonderful.

RECIPE TIPS
I find Tofurky Sausages the best for this dish, as they hold their texture and have a wonderful bite.
You could substitute the sausages for a different alternative or your own home made sausages.
