Ingredients

• 12 oz kielbasa sausage
• 1 box boxed scalloped potato mix
• 2 cups boiling water
• 1.5 cups milk
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp dried parsley
• 0.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 as needed cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.

Step 2

Slice the kielbasa sausage into 1/4-inch thick rounds and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, combine the seasoning packet from the boxed scalloped potatoes mix with the boiling water, milk, unsalted butter, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until the butter has melted and everything is well combined.

Step 4

Spread the dehydrated potato slices from the scalloped potatoes mix evenly across the prepared baking dish.

Step 5

Pour the liquid mixture over the potatoes, ensuring the slices are evenly coated. Gently shake the dish to distribute the liquid evenly.

Step 6

Arrange the sliced kielbasa rounds evenly over the top of the potatoes.

Step 7

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and, if desired, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top for extra flavor and color.

Step 9

Return the dish to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbling (if added) and the potatoes are tender.

Step 10

Garnish with dried parsley before serving. Allow the dish to cool for a few minutes before plating. Serve hot and enjoy!
