POTATO SAUSAGE CASSEROLE

This is an old recipe but I'm not sure it is vintage.  However, I thought it worth sharing.

1 1//2 lbs mild Italian sausage, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 red bell pepper
1 green red pepper
2 medium russet potatoes, quartered and then halved for 16 pieces
1 small onion, chopped
1 can (28-oz) chopped tomatoes
1 tsp dried basil

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Grease a large casserole dish; set aside.

Place the potato chunks into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high 4 minutes.

Combine the sausage, peppers, potatoes, onion, tomatoes, and basil in a large bowl; toss to coat well.

Spoon the mixture into the prepared casserole dish. Cover with foil; cut an air slit in the center.  Bake 45-50 minutes until cooked through.
