Delicious Casserole For Dinner ?

[vickysue]

With just the two of us, when I make a casserole I always make  those that I can  put part of it in the freezer and heat it up  at a later day.  Even do it with soups. When I cook  for the team at the charity where I work, I  always  have some left over for a couple of meals later for us. One we eat when we come home for dinner and the other goes into the freezer.  I may spend a lot of money when I do major shopping, but in the long run I save quite a bit even with the drive  (80-165 miles depending where we go)  Our grocery store is so over priced it is unreal.  But my freezer is full and so is my pantry again. I always divide the meat up into smaller portions and  wrap with freezer paper.  It is waste not want not.  Think and plan ahead.

Lasagna without the ricotta (hubby doesn't like it), but i use 3 cheeses and pepperoni in mine and Shepard's Pie is ours. i also make a casserole with smoked deer sausage, onions and potatoes, but it's been a terrible year for deer (none in the freezer), so I won't be making that until next winter. I make Tuna Noodle casserole once every couple years. I like it, he tolerates it.

My sister gave me a recipe a few years ago for a Chinese casserole that is soooo good.  I make it but not on a regular basis; mainly because I forget about it.  We like lasagna too and sheppards pie.

Hamburger Casserole is also a good easy casserole to try.  It's delicious!

The best kind of casserole I have ever had is the one that I did not plan but threw in what ever I had in the frig stirred together with cream of chicken soup
