Add garlic, smoked paprika, fresh thyme, salt, and pepper, and cook for approximately 1 minute, then add red wine and simmer until it’s reduced.

You could use red or white wine but we prefer red.

Now crumble vegetable stock into the casserole, add tinned tomatoes and stir to combine.

Bring to a gentle boil and turn down the heat to a simmer and simmer for 15 minutes stirring occasionally.

Add in the kidney, cannellini, and haricot beans, stir to combine, and cook for another 6 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

Recipe notes and expert tips

  • Sounds obvious but vegetarian sausages are incredibly important, so buy the best quality that you can afford.
  • Make it a vegan sausage casserole by using vegan sausages.
  • You can use frozen vegetarian sausages which are great for store cupboard dinners, just make sure you check the cooking instructions on the packet.
  • Play around with the ingredients, add a marmite or vegetarian version of Worcestershire sauce for a delicious touch of umami flavor.
  • Beans; we used kidney beans, cannellini beans, and haricot beans drained and rinsed but if you haven’t got them in your store cupboard, then swap them! Butter beans work great too!
  • Taste, taste, taste! We can’t stress this enough, the more you taste your casserole as you are making it, the more you can tailor the taste to create the perfect comfort food.

What to serve with vegetarian sausage casserole

We love to serve our casserole with mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, or even on a bed of rice.

Chopped tomatoes, fresh or canned?

We use canned chopped tomatoes, purely because they are much quicker and easier.

You could use plum tomatoes, simply crush them up with a wooden spoon while cooking the casserole.

What can I have with veggie sausages?

This vegetarian sausage casserole is the perfect dish to have with veggie sausages.

It really is a hearty and filling comfort food dinner.

What can I use instead of red wine in a sausage casserole?

You don’t have to use red wine in your vegetarian sausage casserole.

You could just use more vegetable stock.

If you are trying to avoid the alcoholic content of red wine then why not use a nonalcoholic red wine? There are many good ones available now.

Other things that you could try are grape juice or even cranberry juice, test these out and use the one that you prefer.

How long does this vegetarian sausage casserole last in the fridge?

Well, we don’t actually think that you’ll have any casserole left over to keep in the fridge because it’s a dish that you can’t stop eating.

BUT if you do then it’ll be fine to keep it for two to three days in an airtight container.

You can also freeze this amazing vegetarian sausage casserole and then you’ll have easy comfort food ready made whenever you need it.
