I have been chompin at the proverbial bit y’all, just waiting for a little cool spell to hit so I can fire up the oven and get those casseroles baking again! I just love making casseroles for dinner, they are so easy, quick, comforting and filling. Add a glorious salad and a side of fresh baked rolls or bread…find my recipes for those HERE, and you have a really lovely meal.
When I was pouring through my recipe books I discovered a couple of older, well used cookbooks with amazing casserole recipes that I just had to share with you…this will turn into a series…every couple of weeks I hope to post you 3 more. No pictures, these recipes are from handed down family cookbooks, but I enourage anyone who makes these recipes to send in a pic and I will feature them in the next post installment! Enjoy!
