Just made the Chicken Pot Pie and it was incredible. The flavors are so rich, the whole family especially the kids loved it and wanted more.

Loved the crack chicken casserole and tater tot one! Added a little less cheese than the recipes called for and it turned out perfect.

Made the beef and mashed potatoes for dinner last night. We had it again for lunch and it was still good.

CASSEROLES FOR FAMILY GATHERINGS
Thirty-seven casseroles, one 9x13 pan each, for every kind of night. The Tater Tot Casserole my family negotiates for, the Chicken Pot Pie for when someone's had a hard day, the Green Bean and Sweet Potato casseroles that earn their spot on the holiday table.
37 dishes that earn their place at your table
The recipes stretch across breakfast, beef, chicken, seafood, vegetable, and vegan, so you're never cooking the same thing twice just because you've run out of ideas.
A warm French Toast Casserole can carry you through Christmas morning. Something rich and hearty can anchor an Easter lunch. And there are plenty of fresh options left over for a plain old Tuesday in February. Whether you're feeding a full house or just the two of you, there's a pan in here that fits the night.
Do the hard part the night before
My favorite trick of the whole book: assemble the casserole, cover it, and tuck it in the fridge. Then, bake it fresh exactly when you need it.
It's how I get through Thanksgiving without losing my mind, how I actually enjoy hosting instead of hiding in the kitchen, and how a weeknight dinner ends up tasting like I planned it for days. (Sometimes I did. Usually I didn't, and honestly, no one could ever tell.)
Cook it your way, oven or air fryer
You’ll get both traditional oven directions and air fryer directions for every single casserole. Cook however works best for you. The air fryer versions cook faster, use less energy, and still come out bubbly, golden, and delicious.

Hi, I'm Mandy!
I learned how to cook on a budget from a lot of places. From my parents trying to make ends meet, from my friends when we were all figuring things out, from nights when I refused to go to the grocery store and had to get creative with what was left.
Those lessons shaped how I cook today. Simple, smart, and always satisfying.
I'm so glad you're here. Can't wait to cook together!
