- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup milk
- Seasoning of choice (such as garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper)
- Cooking spray or a bit of butter for greasing the slow cooker
Instructions:
- Prepare the Slow Cooker:
- Grease the slow cooker with cooking spray or a bit of butter to prevent sticking.
- Layer the Ingredients:
- Place a layer of frozen mini potatoes at the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Add a layer of sliced smoked sausage on top of the potatoes.

- Sprinkle one cup of shredded cheese over the onions.

- Mix and Pour:
- In a small bowl, mix the milk with any additional seasonings you’d like to incorporate. Pour this mixture evenly over the layers.
- Cooking:
- Set the slow cooker to high and cook for approximately 4 hours. Keep an eye on it to ensure the potatoes are tender, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve:
