I made this savoury sausages with pineapple, mashed potato and vegetables for my family recently and it has been hailed the newest favourite family dinner, trumping Mexican and spaghetti bolognese. The kids and hubby absolutely loved it. I enjoyed it, although I’m not really a fan of hot pineapple, but it was easy enough for me to pick them off :). The sauce from the casserole coupled with mashed potato was delicious!
This is a great recipe to make, not very hard at all. Add sausages into casserole dish, top with vegetables, mix sauce in a jug and pour on top.
While the sausages are cooking in the oven make some mashed potato and steamed vegetables. Add pineapple in the last 15 minutes of cooking. Here you have a delicious meat and 3 veg dinner, and easy family dinner.
You have to love these easy no-fuss dinners!

Oh this is great, thanks. It’s very similar to a recipe of my Mum’s which I make every so often, but in hers you cook the sausages and make the sauce separately. I love that you can throw it all in the same dish in this version and just bake it. Anything that saves washing an extra frying pan and saucepan is a winner in my books.
Absolutely Julie, less mess the better.:)
I don’t mind pineapple in savoury so I think I’d really like this! Have you ever had a warm pineapple tart? They’re really good and I wonder if it would get around the hot pineapple thing? 🙂
Oh no i have never had pineapple tart before but now you mention it Lorraine i think it is something i am going to have to make. Sounds very yummy!
This is the best timing! I just grabbed a packet of sausages out of the freezer and hadn’t decided what to do with them. Perfect! Thanks 🙂
Fantastic! I honestly have to say it has become a family favourite dish in our house at the moment.:)
Trying this tonight. Looking forward to it!
Did you enjoy it Melanie, it’s a great twist to standard sausage and veg dinner.
What could I use instead of mustard
you could try curry Mandy 🙂
Have you tried the recipe using fresh pineapple. The tinned pineapple is very sweet that could be the reason you are not fond of hot pineapple.
This didn’t cook in the oven for me. I don’t know whether it was the oven, too small a dish or the extra veg I added buI I ended up finishing it off in the electric frypan as it still wasn’t t cooked after an hour in the oven. Tasted delicious though, .will definitely cook again but in the electric frypan browning the onion and the sausages. Will still be a one pan dinner and a winner in this house.
Oh no, that’s no good Robyn. It could definitely be the amount of veggies you added in – I’m glad that you enjoyed it in the end though 🙂
