  • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese  

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.  Cut each sausage in 4 equal lengths, then cut each section lengthwise, but not all the way through, so sausage lies flat.   Place sausages in a 9-inch square baking dish.
  2. Bring water, butter and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan.  Remove from heat and stir in potato flakes and milk with a fork until combined.  Stir in onion, mustard and pepper.
  3. Fill each sausage with potato mixture.  Bake 20 minutes; sprinkle cheese over potatoes.  Return to oven and bake 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and sausages are hot.
  • Cook’s Tip:  Substitute 2 cups of heated prepared mashed potatoes for the potato flakes, water, butter, salt and milk.
