    Chicken sausage casserole recipe made in a large casserole pot with a spoon in it ready to serve.

    This chicken sausage casserole recipe is a healthy low calorie one pot weeknight dinner which takes less than an hour to make. Delicious comfort food all the family will love!

    There’s so much going on in this tasty healthy tomato based chicken sausage casserole recipe.

    I just don’t know where to start with all the benefits!

    OK, so first, I should just say that like my easy pasta arrabiata recipe, I made this chicken sausage casserole recipe from the fantastic free box of tomato products I received from Cirio.

    Thank you Cirio!

    Secondly, this easy one pot sausage casserole recipe is an excellent source of fibre, vitamins, protein and its low calorie too.

    Helping to provide the essentials for a healthy lifestyle, which you can read about fully in the healthy living section.

    And finally as it's a one pot casserole that means it's all cooked in the same pot saving on the washing up. Saving time and making this an excellent easy family meal.

    A portion of chicken sausage casserole served on a plate with some rice and a fork on. The main casserole pot in the background.

    For this chicken and sausage casserole recipe I used a tin of Cirio chopped tomatoes and their finely chopped tomatoes with chilli.

    The quality and taste of their tomato products really give this healthy chicken sausage casserole it's rich authentic taste.

    I really do recommend you trying them out.

    Of course if you can't get Cirio then an equally good quality brand will do to make this healthy sausage casserole!

    This is the casserole pot I use. It's made of cast iron with a smooth enamel finish to reinforce durability and resistance.

    You'll see me using it in many of my recipes and recipe photographs.

    Hygienic and easy to clean there is no absorption of colours and tastes. It's ovenproof and suitable for all hob types.

    It also comes with a lifetime guarantee. You'll never need to buy another casserole pot after you buy this one!

        Hi Fiona. Thanks so much for writting to me and your rating. Yes. You can freeze this sausage casserole. I like to portion any leftovers into individual containers so they're convenient to lift out of the freezer when needed. Hope this helps!
