Any Kind Casserole

"I found this recipe at Pinchin Your Pennies. I got it from a fellow couponer on . She got it from Tightwad Gazzette. The Goodie is optional as it is useually more expensive. I love this recipe as there are many different casseroles you can make. My family really enjoys this recipe. I find that it is best to preboil the potatoes till fork tender before using them. As for the binder I've used sour cream and creamed soups together before with great success as the casserole is creamy and not dry."

  1. I can throw together a pretty good casserole, but it was really nice to have the measurements all written out and some new suggestions for ingredients (almonds). This is what I used for this one: 1 large cooked chicken breast (diced), 1 can whole mushrooms (cut in half), 2 cups (when dry) cooked macaroni, 1 1/2 cup sour cream, sliced almonds and some cheddar cheese mixed in with it all. I topped it with some parmesan and toasted bread crumbs. I used garlic powder, pepper and seasoning salt for seasoning, but I would recommend using a lot more. That's it! This is a TERRIFIC recipe for beginner cooks especially because you are pretty much guaranteed to have the ingredients on hand. I tagged this recipe for the "I REDommend Game".
     
  2. This was so easy to make because I had all the ingredients on hand and I could just use anything. I used tuna fish, peas, cream of mushroom soup (I got the inspiration from the other reviewer), potatoes, and breadcrumbs for the topping. I also put olives in there, and seasoned it with garlic powder, paprika, and salt.
     
  3. Making this was fun. I felt liberated just putting in whatever I had in my fridge. I took an extra step and just put however much of the ingredients I wanted to put in as well. This is what I added: turkey, ham, olives, broccoli, water chestnuts, canned corn--(next time I won't add this because it gives it a soft, sticky/chewy texture.), rice, 1 can cream of mushroom, milk, rosemary, paprika, salt, pepper, topped w/crushed corn flakes. It made 3 9x5 casseroles.

<p>Square Meals Make Round People - Author Unknown <br /><br />Do It With Love---It Will Taste Better - Author Unknown <br /><br />I joined zaar in 2002 but I really didn't use it much on until 2006 after my computer crashed and I lost all my unsaved recipes. Now I post all recipes I've tried or would like to try. I'm actually making it my goal to try almost all the recipes I've posted as soon as I can. I love food and I love to eat and try different recipes. My favorite course is dessert. I love sweets! This leads me to that I did have Gastric Bypass surgery on July 25th 2008. On that note I love baking and cooking a priceless gift passed down from my grammy who I dearly loved and miss deeply. My grammy passed away 1/15/07. She was a wonderful cook and baker and taught me many things and the most valueable things was how to be a wonderful cook and baker like her. I really enjoy searching for new recipes especially here on Zaar. I'm always finding and adding to my cookbook new and exciting recipes. I also enjoy posting recipes here on Zaar as well. I really love collecting different cookbooks. I have over a 100 and growing! I collect mostly Taste Of Home &amp; community cookbooks. The minute I get a cookbook home I sit down and I read my cookbooks from front to back like novels. I work for the Elmira City School&nbsp;District and YWCA. I'm raising my&nbsp;8 yrs old newphew. I'm a part time college student studing Early Childhood Education, but taking time off and hoping to return soon. I live in Elmira, New York where famous writer Mark Twain did some of his writing and he once lived. I have&nbsp;1 cats Samantha and&nbsp;1 dog our newest member MOO MOO (my nieces dog) who are my children as I do not have any human children of my own. I lost&nbsp;four of my very dear children (kitty's) Callie June 2007, Miss Kitty in March 2010, my dog Angel in December 2010, and my other cat Chase in September&nbsp;2011. I'm recently&nbsp;married on August 12th 2010. I love spending time with my niece&nbsp;9 yrs old and my newphews&nbsp;7 &amp;&nbsp;8 yrs old. I enjoy couponing and trading coupons. I love the internet as there's so much to look at online even though you know where I spend most of my time! I enjoy going to yard sales and estate sales every spring - fall. I love gardening and have many different pretty flowers.</p> 8724441"
