What’s better than a quick and easy casserole that is warm, creamy and oozing in cheese?
What I love about a casserole is all of those things plus the fact that they are budget-friendly and you can put just about anything in them. Leftovers? You bet! Short on time? Grab a rotisserie chicken and a few ingredients to assemble a tasty casserole. A couple of the most requested dishes from my kids are casseroles from leftovers! Imagine that! No waste and I have repurposed a few ingredients into something they actually love.
Another plus, especially when using leftovers is that it’s fast and little to clean up. I’ve even thought ahead on occasion and pre-assembled a casserole from tonight’s dinner remnants to tomorrows casserole. Tomorrow all you’ll need to do is pop in the oven. This is not only saving money, but it’s also reducing waste, overuse but saving time that can be better spent spending with the family.
I almost forgot! They are also freezable in many cases. Even when made from leftovers.
Some chicken leftover tonight but nothing else? Just pop it in the freezer. When you have enough for a casserole, pull it all out and assemble!
And, if it’s something my kids are loving and requesting, then won’t company enjoy it too? Some folks think casseroles are not good enough for company. Not me. They are filling, delicious and won’t make a mess of your kitchen.
Most of the casseroles I serve have vegetables in them but you can add a side salad for more.
The freezable casseroles are great for meal prep too! Take a Sunday (or whatever your day off is) and meal prep a week’s worth of meals. This makes life easier on each day. I don’t know about you, but it’s easier for me to set up a week of dinners on a menu and shop and prep on a day off than to think each day what am I going to do? That’s when you fall into the trap of takeout which is less than healthy, costly and you often make excuses and ‘cheat’.
So, here are the best of the best in casseroles. The casseroles most popular on Pinterest as well as my home.
