To make this casserole I started by dumping a pound of Italian sausage meat without the casings into a large skillet over medium-high heat.
I also added some diced onions to the pan.
I crumbled the sausage meat well as it cooked.
I cooked the sausage and onions until they were nicely browned.
Then I removed the skillet from the heat and set it aside.
I poured a can of condensed cream of mushroom soup into a mixing bowl.
I added some milk to the bowl.
I also added some sour cream, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning to the bowl.
I whisked all of the ingredients together well and then set the bowl aside.
I thinly sliced some russet potatoes using a mandoline slicer.
I sprayed a 9 x 13 inch baking dish well with cooking spray.
Then I placed half of the sliced potatoes in the bottom of the dish and spread them out evenly.
I spread half of the mushroom soup mixture over the potatoes.
Then I sprinkled half of the cooked sausage and onion mixture over the soup.
I sprinkled some shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the sausage.
Then I layered the remaining sliced potatoes over the cheese.
I spread the remaining soup mixture on the potatoes.
I sprinkled the remaining sausage and onions over the soup.
I sprinkled some more shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese over the sausage.
Then I covered the dish with foil and placed it in the oven to bake.
I baked the casserole for 50 minutes and then I removed the foil.
I returned the casserole to the oven to continue baking for 15 minutes uncovered.
Then I removed the dish from the oven and left the casserole to sit for about 5 minutes.
I sprinkled some chopped green onions on top of the casserole.
Then the cheesy potato casserole was ready to slice and serve.

Great recipe. I made with hot Italian sausage, 2lbs red potatoes and cream of chicken, cause that’s what I had. Turned out perfect.
