7 Layer Casserole

Thu, 26 Jul 2007 19:21:23 -0400

Delicious!!-makes great leftovers. I am a very picky eater and I remember my stepmom serving this to us and we were hesitant to eat it--but once we tried, we all couldn't get enough! I always DOUBLE the recipe and add extra onions. Can use leftovers for stuffed peppers. My fav is use banana peppers instead and top with cheese. -- posted by Amber in Illinois

Quick and Easy One-Bowl Cheesy Onion Rice Bake

Sun, 02 Sep 2007 16:15:19 -0400

This dish takes no more than 5 minutes to throw together and when you taste this rice you will eat the whole dish, it is *that* good! you could throw in 2 cups cooked chicken or turkey for a main meal, my family loves spice so I add in some cayenne pepper --- because of the high sodium content in the dry soup mix do *not* to add in any extra salt to this, you could add in the complete package of dry soup mix but for my family's taste we found it to be a little too salty --- all ingredients may be doubled --- this is *delicious* -- posted by KITTENCAL

I don't know the original source of this recipe. My mother started making it probably 15 or 20 years ago. It is a Thanksgiving staple at our house. I will usually make a full recipe and split into two pans. The first we will have with dinner that night, the second will be cooked and once cool is wrapped in foil and frozen. To reheat, place back into the oven until warm. -- posted by Erindipity

Hot Dog Casserole

Tue, 11 Sep 2007 21:07:43 -0400

As weird as this dish sounds it was a family favorite growing up. I came from a large family with 8 kids, so cheap meals was a must. There have been times if I get things on sale and with the use of coupons have been able to fix this dish for $1. Also instead of pouring the soup mixture over everything I like to mix all of the ingredients in a bowl and then pour it in a greased casserole dish. I just like everything to get evenly coated. -- posted by Noodle lovin' flool

This was a recipe from Carnation evaporated milk. I revamped it to make it much lower in fat and calories. I reduced the amount of cheese and omitted the butter that was in the original recipe and changed the number of servings to 6. What I got was a pretty tasty low fat chicken & rice casserole that's only 5 WW points (figured on their website). -- posted by LARavenscroft

Better Cheesy Chicken & Rice Casserole

Tue, 02 Oct 2007 15:39:45 -0400

This is the second casserole I have developed with essentially the same ingredients. I think the end product of this one is better, but I want to leave the other one posted in case someone has saved it to their cookbook and expects it to be the way it is. I came up with this one after trying mine and another similar casserole only to find the "cream of" soup to be the dominant flavor. The sauce in this one has an improved flavor, yet is still very easy. -- posted by Soup Fly *

This is a great recipe I came across in an old Homecoming cookbook. My son loved it and he's not a big fan of cabbage.

When I made this (my husband's favorite) the other night I was asked if I'd ever submitted this recipe to Zaar. I had to answer, "What recipe?" So, after throwing this together for over 20 years, I'm writing down this "no-brainer" recipe for you to try, which only takes around 10 minutes to prepare. Optional: You may add fresh or canned sliced mushrooms to the pan if you wish. (2/1/08:Note: Using creamed soups will totally change the texture of this dish.) -- posted by Mareesme

Don't be put off by the list of ingredients or the long looking directions. It goes together very easily!

Nick's Famous Fluffy Rice and Chicken Casserole

Mon, 22 Oct 2007 19:01:41 -0400

It was my fault for not taking the package of chicken out of the freezer in the morning before I went to work and THEN at 4:30 actually thinking, "this will get done in time for supper." Still, dinner would've turned out well (delicious, even) if only a certain "someone" (who shall remain nameless, except for the recipe title!) could've waited another half-hour for the meat to cook through and the rice to get fluffy. :rofl: Instead, that long-ago dinner was a concoction of bloody-bone chicken and molar-tingling crunchy-hard rice in a soupy mess. Now...if THIS description doesn't inspire you, I don't know WHAT will!? .......Honestly, this is a very wonderful comfort food recipe.....just don't start with completely frozen chicken and think that it will be done in the one-hour baking! -- posted by Debber

Great casserole to use up that left over turkey or chicken. We usually end up with lots of left over dark meat of the turkey, and this is a yummy way to use it up and not waste it once you get sick of those turkey sandwiches. You can also use left over chicken, you can also just cook chicken fresh to make this dish. I have also on occasion added broccoli to casserole to get some veggies in. -- posted by KaraRN

I had a bunch of leftover stuff I needed to use, so I threw this together, working off a rice casserole recipe I found. Note 1: For the frozen veggies, the 1 cup of each that's called for in the ingredient list is a rough guesstimate. I just tossed in veggies until it looked like there were enough. Note 2: I use a stoneware 13x9 pan, so I don't have to grease the casserole dish. You may want to if you're using glass or metal. -- posted by Lissa Sprenne

I went to the Rainforest Cafe in Chicago a few years ago, and happened to order the Jambalaya. I had never had Jambalaya, and from the menu it looked a good choice, but I can honestly say, It was the best meal I have ever eaten. I have tried to make this dish many times, and have now (I think) simplified and perfected it. As an Englishman, no-one over here has even heard of Jambalaya, but I have made this dish for lots of friends, who all absolutely love it, and I swear it is the closest I have come to that fabled recipe. It is a cheat in that I use some store-bought items, but if you know how to substitute with fresh produce then let me know. I hope you all enjoy this meal as much as I do! -- posted by Chef #785168

This is a Polish recipe called {Galomki] and is great to serve anytime of the year. Just make plenty. The leftovers are great. This recipe will serve four big eaters or six small eaters. Double or triple for a crowd. It's great to take to a party. -- posted by Antoinette/Artist & Muralist

Crab a Licious Casserole

Tue, 23 Jun 2009 01:21:57 -0400

I adapted this recipe from Cooks.com. I like Basmati or Jasmine rice for this recipe. Each adds its own subtle flavor. Note: I changed the estimated number of servings from 10 to 6 because after making it twice, I can say that this recipe seems to inspire "seconds" and "thirds." We eat a salad along with it--no bread, soup, etc. If you are controlling the portions for a dinner party or are serving a variety of side dishes along with this main course, use the higher number of servings. Note 2: I had this leftover yesterday for lunch, and it warmed up great in the microwave. Freezing seems to be fine, too. Note 3: Because we were running low, my husband substituted parmesan cheese for swiss, cut the amount of cheddar cheese in half, and mixed the cheeses into the casserole instead of putting them on top. He also added a dash of cayenne pepper. We liked it just as well. -- posted by 1ofdabest

Chicken and Wild Rice Casserole

I put this together using ingredients I had on hand. I served it with green beans with almonds and crescent rolls. My family thoroughly enjoyed it. You can use cooked chicken from a previous meal if you have some on hand, but this was a day before grocery day. -- posted by SmoochTheCook

This casserole is my husband's favorite. I like that it's a complete meal that's very easy to put together. It's loosley based on the recipe on the seasoned green beans can, but this version is gluten free. -- posted by Jamie B

Karen's Casserole

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 15:06:04 -0500

This is one of my favorite comfort foods, and a Thanksgiving staple. Luckily it is also simple enough to cook any time. My best friend first made it with chicken, to delicious results. It was originally a vegetarian recipe created by my mother, made to go with Worthington "Chic-ketts." It will also work with Worthington "Tender Bits" or other soy chicken products. -- posted by Cooking Flail

Holubsti--Ukranian Cabbage Rolls

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 00:45:38 -0500

I spent 18 months in central Canada, serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. While I was there, I fell in love with the people and the food, specifically Ukrainian and Filipino food. The cabbage rolls were my favorite, and when I returned to the US, I began searching for recipes, but could never find one that I liked. This recipe comes from me combining elements of two or three different recipes that I found. The resulting recipe is surprisingly easy--if a bit labor intensive. I included instructions to make a sauce, but, if you run out of energy, the stuff in a can works just as well. If I want to do a homemade sauce, I usually do it a day or so in advance., By omitting the meat, this can be a vegetarian dish. By also omitting the sour cream and using margarine instead of butter, it can be vegan. -- posted by CorianneW
