This is the time of year when planning dinners gets really hard. 

Maybe it’s because I’m still a little burnt out from all of the holiday cooking, maybe it’s because I’m getting tired of winter produce. Maybe it’s just me.

But when I start to feel like this, casseroles are a good way for me to do a dinner reset. They’re easy, can usually be prepped ahead of time, and almost everybody enjoys them.

If you feel the same way, this chicken broccoli rice casserole is a great one to add to your dinner rotation. With protein, starch, and veggies all in one dish, it’s a one-pan meal that even picky eaters enjoy.

And as a mom, that’s a total win.

What are some of your family’s must-make holiday recipes?

For us, it’s cranberry fluff, hash brown casserole, and sweet potato casserole. And don’t forget the soft dinner rolls! For some of my friends, it’s green bean casserole.

If you’re a green bean casserole type of person, this recipe is for you. And if you have only ever felt kind of so-so about it, I bet my fresh green bean casserole recipe will turn you into a fan.

It’s never too early to start planning for the holidays, right?

Right??

Well, I don’t think it is. Maybe it’s just because I cook and bake for a living, but I love thinking ahead to what I’m going to make for holiday dinners.

As someone with picky eaters in her family, I know the challenge of making a vegetable side that everyone will eat. Or even just try a few bites of.

So you can’t blame me for trying to trick them into eating broccoli by putting it into a cheesy casserole, ok? 

Between the creamy, cheesy base and the crunchy cheese crackers on top, this is one dish that even the pickiest eaters will want to eat.

Casseroles are the ultimate comfort food. Whether it’s a make-ahead breakfast casserole for breakfast or brunch, hash brown casserole as a side dish, or chicken pot pie casserole for dinner, they always make me happy.

And they’re almost always easy to prep ahead of time and feed a crowd. What could be better than that?

This chicken spaghetti casserole is definitely one of those recipes. Super delicious, comforting, and perfect for feeding your family any day of the week.

Is there anything more comforting than a casserole?

Maybe it’s just because I grew up in the Midwest, but casseroles are total comfort food to me. Whether it’s Jiffy corn casserole alongside a holiday meal or cheeseburger tater tot casserole or chicken spaghetti casserole for a weeknight dinner, casseroles just make me happy.

This taco casserole is my family’s latest favorite. It’s a 30-minute meal that I can quickly make on a weeknight and we can all add our favorite toppings to it. 

What could be better than that?

There are a few foods that I really love but Eric and Elle just can’t get on board with. Unfortunately for me, chicken pot pie is one of them.

So making a big chicken pot pie just for myself isn’t exactly in the cards. But making a meal inspired by chicken pot pie that I can share with my mom and her boyfriend? That I can do.

This Chicken Pot Pie Casserole is perfect for exactly that. It can easily feed a family of 4 with a side salad or can generously feed 1-2 people with leftovers (which reheat well). 

Plus, it’s make-ahead friendly, so I can assemble the casserole and then drop it off at my mom’s for her to throw in the oven later. 

It’s basically a busy mom’s dream meal!

When Elle was little, she went through an anti-casserole phase. She would happily eat meals like Homemade Sloppy Joes or Ritz Cracker Chicken, but having all her food in one pot sort of freaked her out.

And man, did I really miss casseroles during that time. 

There’s just something about casseroles that makes them so comforting to me. Plus, casseroles are such a game changer when you’re trying to better your dinner game in the midst of a hectic schedule.

So I was pretty excited when I finally got her to try this Cheeseburger Tater Tot Casserole and she loved it! It’s been a weeknight dinner go-to around here ever since.
