Weeknight Family Supper Meal, an inspiration for a meal one night of the week that may include ideas how to make part of the meal ahead, how to freeze any leftovers or how to make leftovers into a makeover for another meal.
Casseroles are loved at our house and especially the ones that can be made ahead, place in the fridge and pop it in the oven when time to cook supper.
If there is a buttery topping that is sprinkled on top like this casserole has, leave it to sprinkle just before baking. Look out for the leftovers. We love this casserole almost better the next day. It is scrumptious.
Did I say it is not like your typical casseroles? The ingredients may surprise you.
While I make the casserole the day or two before, I love to put a pot of collards on the stove to cook low and slow. They are a perfect side dish or even a vegetable meal alone with a pan of cornbread.
There are so many recipes to use leftover collard greens. Here are a few.
Fried apple pies are just the dessert to finish off this delicious meal, but most of the time I do not want to make the dough or even roll out biscuit dough.
The method I have found is to make crispy hot apple pies with egg roll wrappers. They super fast to make and really taste better the day you make them so fry a few for just a little indulgence after a delicious meal.
