Recipe - Mexican Sausage Casserole

In honor of Cinco de Mayo, here is a recipe from our cookbook "Favorite Recipes from Something Special".  Enjoy!

Mexican Sausage Casserole

2 pounds pork sausage, 1 hot and 1 mild
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup green pepper
1 clove garlic, crushed and drained
2 (16 ounces) cans tomatoes
1 3/4 cup buttermilk
2 cups elbow macaroni, uncooked

Brown the sausages, onion, green pepper and garlic in a saucepan.  Add the tomatoes, buttermilk and macaroni.  Cover and simmer for 25 minutes or until macaroni is cooked. 

Our notes regarding this recipe state:  "This is one of the most delightful surprises.  It is so simple and soooo delicious.  Sure, you could use more tomatoes, even Rotel or stewed.  I serve it on crushed tortilla chips.  Should you wish to take this to a covered dish dinner or share with a friend, in a casserole dish, layer crushed chips, casserole mix and top with shredded cheddar cheese.  The hot casserole will melt the cheese for now or heat for serving later."
