Easy casserole recipes?

So dinner has been a problem for a while now. Cooking is hard for me--I can cook meat, but I have a hard time eating it. DH has a bunch of tests right now, so he doesn't have a ton of time to cook. The crockpot, our normal go-to for easy, is out because I can't handle the smell of food cooking all day. The one thing we've found that works well is easy casseroles or something like a frozen lasagna. Last week I made chicken rice casserole (four ingredients, super easy) and that was good because I didn't have to watch anything cook. I think that's my main problem.

So anyway. Do you guys have any easy dinner casseroles that don't require a lot of prep or pre-cooking?

Thanks for reading my rambly mess.

 TIA!!

Re: Easy casserole recipes?

  • Shepherd's pie is a super easy one--some ground beef (or turkey), veggies and mashed potatoes on top. You can google it and get a million recipes. You will have to brown the meat in advance though, so I don't know if that's a problem for you or not. Sorry :( I hope it gets better soon!!

    We just cut up some root veggies while browning some sausage (left whole)

    mix 1/2 cup of broth with 1 1/2 tsp Italian (or other mix) herbs and some fresh squished garlic

    pour over the veggies and sausage, drizzle balsamic over top and bake it in oven (450)(covered) for ~45 minutes and check if veggies are done. 

    we deviated from the recipe b/c I forgot it wanted to bake the veggies first :p

    This is one we make a lot, but you do have to make the sausage ahead.

    Egg Casserole

    6 slices bread without crusts

    12 beaten eggs

    1 can mushrooms, drained (we leave these out)

    1 can cream of mushroom soup

    1/2 pkg. hot breakfast sausage, cooked & crumbled

    1 c. grated cheese

    3/4 c. milk

    Butter one side of bread.  Place face down in 9 x 13 casserole dish.  Combine eggs, soup, and milk mixing well.  Stir in mushrooms, sausage, and cheese.  Pour over bread.  Can be made ahead--just cover and chill overnight.  Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes.  Enjoy!

  • i made a slightly healthier version of those kfc bowls that are easy (and tasty). you can use frozen to make it faster.

    assemble in these layers:

    mashed sweet potatoes on bottom
    corn, green beans, whatever veggies you can handle
    chicken breast pieces (HEB has some good ones in the frozen section)
    sprinkle some cheese and if you want to make it even tastier, bacon

    throw in the oven to melt the cheese.
