Italian Sausage Bean and Tomato Bake with crackling sausage, creamy northern beans, tomatoes and Italian seasoning can be on your dinner table in under 30 minutes! 

I did not expect to love this dish. That it would be comforting, like a roaring fire on a cold winter night and surprised that the canned beans are the flavor stars of the show. I literally stopped in my tracks when I reviewed the pictures. You need to know that Italian Sausage Bean and Tomato Bake is just as delicious as it is pretty.  When this dish comes sizzling out of the oven, smelling like pork heaven, you will be tempted to dive right in. Please just wait a few minutes because it is HOT! HOT! HOT! Sorry for all the exclamation points but I feel I need to warn you.

Italian Sausage Bean and Tomato Bake is a weeknight winner with crackling sausage, northern beans, juicy tomatoes and Italian seasoning.

Tips and Tricks for making the best Italian Sausage Bean and Tomato Bake:

  • Start with quality meat – use organic Italian sausage and tomatoes if possible.  I have said it before but the best tasting results start with the highest quality ingredients.
  • Using fresh herbs is always best when the recipe calls for it. Unfortunately sometimes the grocer doesn’t carry them or they are not in season.  When this happens I use re-hydrated herbs. I just soak the amount of herbs I need it in a few drops of water and it re-hydrates to almost fresh. The smell and color were like fresh herbs, and to have herbs on hand anytime is a real treat.  You can find jars of dehydrated herbs in the spice aisle or produce section of most grocery stores.
  • When it comes to using spices, keep the shelf fresh by storing spices in a cool, dark place, away from direct heat or sunlight. In tightly closed containers whole spices will stay fresh for about 4 years, ground spices for about 2 to 3 years and dried herbs for 1 to 3 years
