Casseroles are a great way to serve your family’s favorite flavors on the dinner table without a lot of prep time or extra dishes.

So whether it’s your first time putting a casserole together or you are looking for some new inspiration to mix things up, we have 5 tasty casseroles that the whole family will love!
Nacho Cheese Dorito Casserole
This casserole is a great way to put our tasty ground beef to use, as well as a fun spin on taco night! A simple recipe that marks all of the main boxes for the perfect casserole (protein, starch, vegetable, binding ingredients, and CHEESE), the entire family will be asking for you to make this one again very soon!
Kid-friendly casseroles can sometimes be hard to come by, but we have no doubt that this will be a family favorite for all ages. With its creamy and delicious filling with the perfect crunchy topping of Doritos and then topped with even more cheese, there is so much goodness in one dish!
Serve with some sour cream, guacamole, or even some salsa for even more delicious flavors.
Cowboy Casserole
If you’re looking for an easy recipe to put together for a weeknight dinner, this is where it’s at! This is one of those hearty casseroles that combine filling ingredients like ground sirloin, cream of mushroom soup, tater tots, bacon, cheese, and even spinach! (but it’s chopped up, so those picky eaters won’t even notice it’s there!)
A perfect meal for a busy night that will still taste good when you go to warm up any leftovers the next day! If you prefer a little more kick to your recipes, you could also add in some green chiles or jalapenos.
Cheesy Chicken Vegetable and Rice Casserole
This casserole dish really gives you a chance to add some nutrition to your meal without even trying. Filled with broccoli, carrots, and onion, along with protein from the chicken breasts and shredded cheddar cheese, this meal is a real powerhouse to fill up everyone in your family so they can keep on with their active lifestyles!
Easy dinner recipes that are also filled with healthy ingredients can definitely be hard to find sometimes, but this is a reminder that you can have delicious recipes that are also good for you! The creamy sauce really brings everything together for the best results in a fairly short amount of time.
Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole
Who says you can only enjoy breakfast foods in the morning? This delicious casserole bake would be great for busy weeknights or even warmed up a second time for lunch the next day! The recipe itself calls for eggs, shredded hashbrowns, peppers, and sausage, but they also encourage you to try other ingredients to switch it up, like smoky bacon, roasted potatoes, mushrooms, and even asparagus if it’s in season.
No matter what you choose to mix together in your baking dish, add lots of cheese and sit back and enjoy a delicious meal with your family any time of the day!
Broccoli Chicken Divan
This easy casserole recipe can be prepared in the oven or the slower cooker. It’s a great way to use the chicken breasts from here at the Co-Op, and if you’re in a hurry, the diced chicken breasts would also be a great way to save you some time. This recipe can also help you to use up any leftover veggies you have on hand.
Once your casserole is done, you can serve it over some rice, egg noodles, pasta, or mashed potatoes, or if you’re looking for more of a low-carb option, it tastes pretty good all on its own.
