Needless to say, it's really delicious. Recipes like High-Protein Chicken and Quinoa Casserole and Creamy Sun-dried Tomato and Roasted Red Pepper Casserole will become classics that you and your family will love.
chicken and quinoa casserole
This aromatic and flavorful dish is like a casserole-style veggie pizza topped with fresh basil, herbed diced tomatoes, and melted cheese. If you can't find fresh mozzarella colliesine, buy a large bowl and tear it into small pieces. Preheating the baking sheet helps caramelize the roasted vegetables, adding layers of flavor to this delicious dinner.
Black bean and quinoa skillet casserole with cheese
This Southwestern-style one-skillet casserole is packed with quinoa and lots of fresh vegetables. Sharp cheddar cheese adds flavor to the filling, and a layer of gooey cheese on top.
stuffed pepper casserole
This stuffed pepper casserole isn't stuffed with peppers, but you'll enjoy the combination of sweet and smoky flavors that come from the peppers, flame-roasted tomatoes, smoked paprika, and ground beef. If you have the cooked rice in the bag or leftover brown rice, you can use it as is. If you're using leftover rice, you'll need about 1 1/2 cups.
chicken taco casserole
This flavorful chicken taco casserole is packed with veggies, chicken, cheese, and crunchy tortilla chips, grilled to perfection, and topped with fresh tomatoes, crunchy iceberg lettuce, and creamy avocado. It's a classic taco. Make it your own by swapping out the black beans for pinto beans or adding some pepper jack cheese for a kick. If you want to keep it mild, choose a mild taco seasoning and omit the jalapeños.
Creamy spinach and chicken casserole
Creamed spinach and chicken combine in this popular comforting casserole. Crushed red pepper contains heat, so if you want a milder version, add less or omit it entirely. You can pre-cook long-grain brown rice or find microwave-safe packaged brown rice to use instead.
Creamy sun-dried tomato and roasted red pepper casserole
This healthy vegetarian casserole is a standout on any table. Crushed red pepper adds a little kick to this creamy main dish. I love the convenience of jarred roasted red peppers, but if you have the time, try roasting your own.
Spanakopita-style chicken and white bean casserole
This is a fun take on spanakopita, featuring a creamy feta and spinach filling and crispy filo topping. Chicken and white beans are packed with protein. White kidney beans such as cannellini, chickpeas, and white kidney beans are good choices here. To keep the phyllo dough from drying out when making the casserole, place unused sheets under a clean, damp towel.
green chile rotisserie chicken casserole
This Green Chili Rotisserie Chicken Casserole is packed with tender rotisserie chicken and tender vegetables. The corn adds just the right amount of sweetness, and the rice absorbs the flavor. A crunchy topping of crushed tortilla chips rounds out this comforting Southwestern-style casserole.
slow cooker chicken and pinto bean enchilada casserole
This slow cooker meal is comfort food at its best. The layers of tortilla, cheese, and sauce meld into a cozy casserole with a hint of enchilada flavor. The top layer of tortillas gets nice and crispy in the slow cooker. I use pinto beans, but you could easily substitute black beans.
philadelphia cheesesteak casserole
This easy casserole combines beef, cheese, and peppers for a classic Philadelphia cheesesteak flavor. It's sure to become your family's new favorite for a quick weeknight meal. We love the flavor of smoked provolone to match this dish, but if you want a more traditional flavor, aged provolone will work just as well.
Creamy Lemon Parmesan Chicken Casserole
This creamy chicken casserole recipe is bursting with lemon and flavorful Parmesan cheese. There's also plenty of broccoli, which is rich in vitamin C. Using whole grain orzo increases the fiber content of this healthy and comforting dinner.
Moussaka
This version of the classic Greek dish layers eggplant with aromatic meat sauce and creamy béchamel for a satisfying summer casserole. Eggplant slices are usually fried, but here they are baked to reduce calories. Graviera is a hard grated cheese that is popular in Greece. Look for it with other specialty cheeses in a well-stocked grocery store or use it in place of Pecorino Romano.
Cheese spinach and mushroom casserole
Homely and healthy, this cheesy dreamy casserole is loaded with the nutrients of spinach and the super flavorful, lip-tingling taste of sautéed mushrooms. Any shroom will do, so choose your favorite.
philadelphia chicken cheesesteak casserole
This Philadelphia Chicken Cheesesteak Casserole tastes exactly like the classic sandwich version, but in casserole form. I replaced the beef with ground chicken, added some pasta, and made an easy dinner in just one skillet.
nacho cauliflower casserole
This cauliflower casserole is inspired by nachos and is filled with tender roasted cauliflower, sweet red pepper, and brown rice. Salsa, along with melted cheese, helps bind the ingredients together. Crushed tortilla chips are placed on top to add a crunchy texture. Serve with the suggested garnishes or add your favorite toppings to complete the dish.
Spinach, mushroom and egg casserole
This delightful spinach, mushroom, and egg casserole is layered with earthy cooked mushrooms, baby spinach, fluffy eggs, and a nutty cave-aged Gruyère that deepens the flavor. This easy casserole can be served for breakfast, brunch, or even dinner with a side of green salad.
Cheese minced meat and broccoli casserole
This cheesy ground beef and broccoli casserole is comforting food for the whole family. It only takes 30 minutes to assemble and bake in one skillet, making it the perfect weeknight meal.
chicken spaghetti casserole
This chicken spaghetti casserole comes with a super creamy sauce that coats the pasta, chicken, and plenty of vegetables. The panko gives this family-friendly casserole a little crunch. Be sure to let it rest for about 20 minutes after removing it from the oven. This will allow the casserole to cool and set nicely before serving.
Creamy rotisserie chicken noodle casserole
This Creamy Chicken Noodle Casserole recipe is inspired by Karen Rankin's popular Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup with Rotisserie Chicken. I use commercially available rotisserie chicken to shorten the cooking time. This casserole is cozy and delicious.
