A rustic presentation of festive sausage casserole, elegantly arranged on a wooden table. The casserole is baked to perfection in a cast-iron dish, featuring golden-brown sausage, roasted bell peppers, caramelized onions, and melted cheese bubbling on top. Fresh herbs like rosemary and thyme garnish the dish for a festive touch. A serving spoon rests inside, showcasing the hearty layers. Scattered around are rustic bread slices, seasonal decorations like pinecones and cranberries, and a small bowl of extra sauce. Soft natural lighting enhances the warm and comforting feel, with gentle shadows and a hint of holiday charm in the background.
