Affiliate links have been used to link to items I am discussing in this post. I made this casserole for the teachers at Sammy and Alex’s school for conference night….

Make Ahead Maple Waffle Casserole with Bacon and Sausage for Breakfast or Brunch is perfect for Christmas morning or a weekend when you want something extra special! I have been dying to tell you guys about this dish for a while now. See what happened is, the first time I made it, I did not…
Bobotie (South African Curried Ground Meat Casserole) with Peach Preserves
Bobotie is one of those iconic dishes that is so commonly made in its place of origin that there are as many different versions as there are homes–the land of origin in this case being South Africa, specifically Cape Malay. So although I have featured Bobotie before, I was perfectly happy to try a different…
Spanish Pork and Fideo Noodles Cazuela (Stovetop Casserole)
I swear I don’t do it on purpose. But somehow, whenever John leaves town for a conference, I seem to end up cooking something I know he would love. Sometimes I feel guilty about this. He is in Recife, Brazil for 8 days. I will let you draw your own conclusions about my guilt level…

Vegetarian Biryani with Curried Creamy Tomato Sauce

Tortilla and Cheddar Topped Beef, Bean and Bacon Casserole
Like many parents, I am always on the lookout for ways to help out at my kids’ school, without, well, doing things that I hate the idea of doing. For example, some parents don’t mind working with accounting, and they end up holding the position of treasurer in their PTG or PTO. Bless those people…
