Cannelloni with Potatoes and Sausage

The Cannelloni with potatoes and sausage are excellent for family Sundays and festive days, to be served on the table alongside the meatloaf and roasted potatoes. A highly appreciated first course in Italian cuisine, the most original are the crespelle cannelloni with meat sauce and the cannelloni with mushrooms and sausage which can be prepared in a thousand different ways. Today I propose succulent rolls filled with boiled potatoes, sautéed sausage combined with béchamel and cheeses, very tasty and full of flavor, perfect to serve also on Easter. Try them and let me know, kisses, Chicca.
