This book is amazing. Most of the recipes are made with staple items you have on hand! No funky seasonings or strange vegetables. Whip up the casserole at naptime, pop it in the oven before dinner, All Set!!!!!! Substitutions are very easy, add some frozen veggies to make it more nutritious!! I can not rave enough about this book. MAny of the brunch casseroles can also serve as dinner. I have now given this book as gifts to expectant mothers.....Huge timesaver, great meals!! Can't go wrong!

This book is chock full of easy recipes using items that are probably already in your cupboard. I rated 4 star only b/c I am a visual person and there aren't pics of most dishes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great casserole book, November 10, 2006

This is a great and comprehensive book. It covers breads, breakfasts, meat, vegetarian, and dessert casseroles with make-ahead hints, a list for a well-stocked, casserole-friendly pantry and general casserole tips. I have made at least 8 casseroles (from various categories) in the book and they have all turned out very well. Most were incredibly easy, too. This is my first and only casserole book and I'm very happy with it- I don't think I need another one since I feel like this one covers just about everything.
