Every once in a while my family loves a good, home-cooking casserole. The right combinations in a casserole can almost feel like a warm hug from when you were a child. They can evoke memories from your past. I always find it amazing to stop and think about the way food effects us emotionally and…

Cheesy Quinoa, Chicken, and Broccoli Casserole
Wow, another snow day today! That makes three this week. I need to keep everyone focused and moving forward because changes of schedule in our house can be difficult. They start to sleep in later, which causes them to stay up later, so they sleep in later…. Until their days and nights are flipped. So,…
Cinnamon French Toast Bake
We love our breakfast casseroles. I love that I can make it the night before and just pop them in the oven the next morning. This is our favorite for New Year’s Day because no matter what time we get up breakfast can be on the table in about an hour. My kids love this…
Spaghetti Pizza Casserole
Busy, busy time of year. That means I have to be on top of my dinner plans or we will be eating take-out or going to restaurants. Not, the money I want to be spending this time of year. Also, I need to have quick easy dinners I can make ahead, put in a slow…
Cowboy Casserole II
So, this dinner was supposed to be entirely different. Well, it was supposed to be a Cowboy Lasagna like at Peppermint Mocha Mama.blogspot.com. The problem was I started reading the reviews. Many said it needed more flavor, the tater tots were mushy not crispy, it used canned tomato soup which I don’t use. So, what…
Loaded Potato and Buffalo Chicken Casserole
This recipe has been posted all over Facebook and Pinterest lately. I noticed it about a year ago but since it made a resurgence lately I decided now was the time to give it a try. When I looked at the recipe I noticed that it was made with olive oil. Olive oil has a…
Trisha Yearwood’s Creamy Turkey Casserole
This meal started with a Facebook post from Hellman’s Mayonnaise featuring Trisha Yearwood making her after Thanksgiving Creamy Turkey Casserole that uses up those bits and pieces leftover from your big dinner. The video can be seen here and the original recipe for Creamy Turkey Casserole here. It sounded a bit strange but very easy. …
Savory French Fry Casserole
Well, at the Feis (Irish Arts/Dance Competition) this weekend my daughter severely sprained her left foot. Which wouldn’t be so bad if she hadn’t already had a brace on because she sprained her right ankle. So, after an x-ray at the Emergency Room she has a boot on her left foot. No, dancing for at…
Chicken Divan
I normally don’t post on Saturday or Sunday but I didn’t have enough hours in the day yesterday to post this Chicken Divan dish that we had Thursday night so I wanted to make sure I got it in today. A few months ago I made a Pork Divan because what I thought was chicken…
Ten Delicious Dishes to Change Your Mind About Chicken Breasts
I cook using chicken breasts in many of my recipes as I can usually buy them for $1.99 a pound or less when on sale. I usually buy them 20 to 30 pounds at a time so that I can use them the 6-8 week sale rotation until they will be back on sale…
Mexican Casserole – Cinco de Mayo
We spent the last weekend in Milwaukee, Wisconsin at two Irish Dance Feis. We had been once before but only for one night. This time we spent two nights and had a bit of time to explore. We ended up at a German Beer Haus that was wonderful. Long family style tables with great beer…
Simple Cheesy Baked Rigatoni with Meatballs
I let my kids pick their birthday dinner each year. My son asked for pasta and sauce. His sister was totally annoyed, “He wants spaghetti and sauce? I am planning on a German dinner with braised red cabbage, German potato salad and brats with sauerkraut. He wants spaghetti?” She was not impressed in the least….
