Answer 5

Depends on what kind of meat you want, flavours you like etc.

Ground Beef:
Cooked macaroni noodles, 1 or 2 packs dry onion soup mix, cheddar cheese (lots) and cooked ground beef.
Mix it all together and bake until cheese in melted.
My mom made this when I was a kid, it was always a favourite!

Chicken:
Any type of pasta, a quality pasta sauce, frozen mixed veggies (like the bags that have zucchini, carrots and snow peas in them, cooked chicken breast chunks or (moneysaver!) ground chicken.

Basically, for casseroles, anything goes. Most dinners you would make on the stovetop can be mixed together in a casserole. You like the flavour of noodles, diced tomatoes and hamburger? Instant casserole!

Also try turning your casserole into a pot pie. Take your casserole ingredients (vegetables and meat with sauce, St Hubert's dry mix is good for most) and put it into a casserole dish that has puff pastry lining the bottom. Another sheet of puff pastry on top and pot pie is born!
