This cookbook contains quick, easy to assemble recipes that are delicious. It is one of my favorite cookbooks.

Casseroles are such a wonderful meal. They are comforting, they have your main food and the sides/vegetables all together. You can give them to others for their comfort and take them to bring your own suppers. They are one of the ultimate comfort foods and this book has some of the best recipes I've run across, including one that surprises many (in a good respect) when I fix it - tomato, macaroni and cheese. There are other dishes that have more `modern' ingredients than many think of as casserole recipes; salmon and potato strata, garden paella, baked beans with apple garnish. Recipes include some to make ahead and then cook, always handy to have around, especially the tasty shrimp and cheese strata that uses only ½ pound of tiny shrimp, but turns out as an impressive dish.
There are many handy hints to make these casseroles/one-pot meals and information on the dishes to cook in. Recipes include: pasta, chicken and turkey, beef and veal, pork, lamb, fish and seafood, vegetarian, brunch and lighter fare. There is an index and a few pictures are in this book that is a plus for any cook's cookbook shelf.
