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
Chicken & Broccoli Noodle Casserole
I've been feverishly combing through ancient cookbooks looking for the perfect dinner recipe. It's what I do when I don't have any inspiration for weeknight meals. I'll grab a few cookbooks off my bookcase and then flip through the pages until something catches my eye. There's a "Butter 'N Love" cookbook from the 1970's that's… Continue reading Chicken & Broccoli Noodle Casserole
Pineapple Casserole
You ever see a recipe in a cookbook and think, that can't be right? The ingredients don't add up, or the baking time seems off, or the description seems implausible? That's what happened to me when I first spotted Pineapple Casserole. The title makes it seem innocent. Pineapple Casserole. What could be weird about that?… Continue reading Pineapple Casserole
Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Biscuits
Over the last several weeks, I've been revisiting some classic cookbooks in my collection. I've got a massive collection so it's nearly impossible to go through them all, but I like to peruse a few at a time to spark some inspriation for my weekly menus. I've found quite a few good recipes from a… Continue reading Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Biscuits
Turkey & Black Bean Tamale Pie
You ever have these grandiose ideas for dinner, sit down to cook it up, and then it turns out nothing like you had envisioned? That was me cooking this tamale pie recipe. The first problem: I didn't make enough of the "tamale" mixture to cover the top. My second problem: I didn't season my "tamale"… Continue reading Turkey & Black Bean Tamale Pie
King Ranch Chicken Soup
Ok y'all, I think this is it. I think this is my last soup recipe of the year. I've made a TON of soup recipes this year because of how cold it's been. It's officially the first meteorological day of Spring (spring equinox is in 20 days) and it's March 1st, so I think that… Continue reading King Ranch Chicken Soup
Chicken Paprikash Casserole
I'm sure most of your Thanksgiving leftovers are gone by now, but if you managed to freeze some turkey this recipe is for you. The weekend before Thanksgiving I meal prepped just one casserole to eat for lunch at work. I didn't want to take up to much space in my fridge and I knew… Continue reading Chicken Paprikash Casserole
