Notes
- We altered a recipe from 150 Recipes in a 13 x 9 Pan to create this Crock Pot Sweet Corn Sausage Rice Casserole Recipe.
- We have made this recipe several times in a browning slow cooker, casserole crock and also in one of our regular 6 quart slow cookers with a reusable liner. Any 6 quart slow cooker should work fine.
- As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
