Love it or hate it, green bean casserole is a polarizing side dish. I'm in the "love it" camp. I love everything about it: the creamy mushroom soup, the salty canned green beans, the crispy French-fried onions. I get why green bean casserole gets a bad rap, though. It is a bunch of less-than-stellar ingredients… Continue reading Fully Loaded Cheesy Green Bean Casserole

Apple Pie French Toast Bake
Happy Halloween! I'm decked out in a Halloween shirt and Halloween makeup for the day, but after today it's all about my most favorite time of the year: CHRISTMAS! I started early...REALLY early. My house is already decorated for Christmas. I'm recipe testing for Christmas. Even though Halloween isn't in the rear view mirror yet,… Continue reading Apple Pie French Toast Bake
Homestyle Chicken Pie
You did not read that title wrong. This is chicken pie. Not chicken pot pie. Is there truly a difference? Barely. This chicken pie lack vegetables and a round shape, and those are about the only things that differentiate it from chicken pot pie. I made this because it sounded right up my husband's alley.… Continue reading Homestyle Chicken Pie

French Onion Chicken Casserole
This year I planted a vegetable garden for the first time. I bought a simple, self-watering garden box from Costco and then loaded up on seeds and soil. I even bought plant food just in case I needed it! Everything was chugging along fine for a few weeks. My seeds slowly grew into sprouts (what… Continue reading French Onion Chicken Casserole

I love to make them on Sundays and then eat the leftovers throughout the rest of the week. You end up getting plenty of hearty breakfast to… Continue reading Cheesy Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole
Tater Tot Breakfast Bake
I'm in the camp that believes breakfast casseroles are not just meant for the holidays. That's typically when people make them. I'm guessing a lot of people reserve breakfast casseroles for Christmas because they can feed a lot of people with minimal effort. But if you meal prep like I do, having leftovers is a… Continue reading Tater Tot Breakfast Bake
Farmer’s Breakfast Casserole
This is a classic breakfast recipe. Farm fresh ingredients. Crispy, smoky bacon. Hashbrowns cooked with cheese. Those are all the things people enjoy in a good breakfast-time meal. When I first spotted this recipe, it was simple enough that I'd usually turn the page in my cookbooks. But something about it called out to me;… Continue reading Farmer’s Breakfast Casserole
Hot Chicken Salad
There's something about classic casserole recipes that just puts my mind at ease. Chicken and rice will instantly make my day better. Chicken spaghetti will fill me up with warmth and happiness. Stuffed shells or manicotti will make me dream of better days. One thing I've noticed in a lot of vintage cookbooks is something… Continue reading Hot Chicken Salad
Classic Squash Casserole
Summer produce is at its peak right now. Mid-August is the best time to buy tomatoes, watermelon, peppers, peaches and squash. The farmer's market was packed full of produce when we went this weekend. I love perusing the booths for the best of summer's harvest. Soon, the booths will close up shop and the produce… Continue reading Classic Squash Casserole
