here's the sausage casserole I made last night - Kicky loved it(even ate the red pepper) but DS(15) was not mad keen (but he ate every scrap
) Not sure on timing - the recipe said 4 hours on medium, this had 7 on partly high, partly low,partly medium then 4 hours on high. So whatever timing you usually use when you have lumps of raw potato is about right
Sausage Casserole
8 sausages
1 onion chopped
1 red pepper
handful of mushrooms
1 crushed garlic clove
300g pots chopped into cubes
2 carrots chopped into cubes
1 tin of chopped toms
pinch of chilli & paprika
300ml of veg stock
Brown sausages lightly in some olive oil.
Put into the slow cooker.
Brown the pepper & onion in the garlic,chilli & paprika.
Add to the cooker,with the veg,toms & stock.
Cook for about 4 hrs on medium (but see timing above!!)
I left out garlic (because I didn't fancy it last night) and the chilli (because we had Crockpot Lady's Azorean beef the night before and even with 1/4 of the chilli she said it was way hot - even DH suffered and he loves a curry!), but it could do with a little extra oomf! Maybe some Worcestershire sauce, or chicken stock instead of veg.
Who knew it was really a recipe. 
(still can't use a knife
DH is getting well fed-up of being my commis-chef
)
