Shipwreck Casserole

"Shipwreck casserole is a layered dish of potatoes, ground beef, sautéed vegetables, and cheese that’s baked until bubbling and golden. What about the name? Legend goes that after a shipwreck, the passengers saved what they could and turned it into this casserole for dinner. Whether you believe the story or not, it’s a deeply warming, satisfying meal for certain."  Comment from Real Simple

Interesting story.  Love the combination of ingredients, easy, seems to be delicious and a casserole I would like to make.

This casserole looks fast, easy and delicious.  I love that it is a ham casserole since I don't see the recipes often.  Another recipe I will try soon.

Chicken Dumpling Casserole

Originally posted January 2014

The Captain makes the best Chicken and Dumplings from scratch that I have ever had.  But, like most everything made from scratch, it takes hours to make. I will post his recipe soon because it really is worth it when you have the time.  (It breaks my heart to say he never wrote his recipe down for me and now he is gone.  Lesson learned to not put things off because it may be too late.)

This recipe is one of those semi-homemade meals that I love so much. Sometimes you just don't have the time to slave away for hours in the kitchen. Cream of chicken soup is one of my favorite methods of making a delicious meal fast and easy.  Grocery store rotisserie chicken is another secret to a fast and delicious meal.  Of course making your own chicken is more economical!


UPDATE and REVIEW:

The name of the recipe is deceiving.  It is more like a Chicken and Biscuits Casserole or add some vegetables and call it a Chicken Ala King Casserole.

The biscuit topping that forms is not thick like a biscuit, but is very tasty and somewhat crunchy.  We loved it.  It produces a gravy that is thick and a nice compliment to the chicken and biscuit topping.  I've never added chicken broth to cream of chicken soup and was pleasantly surprised.

We served it over mashed potatoes, which was a great choice and I highly recommend it for a day you are in the mood for delicious comfort food that is a fast and easy meal to prepare.

The plan for the next time it is made . . . double the flour, baking soda mixture for the biscuit topping and add cooked vegetables like corn, peas, carrots or green beans.

Chicken Tater Tot Casserole

"When it comes to planning dinner, it’s often tricky to find a filling, nourishing meal that will appeal to kids and feature a few veggies. Kind of a cross between chicken pot pie and Midwestern hot dish recipes, this chicken Tater Tot casserole ticks every box. It’s pure comfort food that even the pickiest eaters will love" - description of recipe by Taste of Home. 

Gotta love it if it contains tater tots, chicken and cream of chicken soup!   Love that it is easy and can be frozen for another even easier meal.  And look at that presentation!

Chef John of Food Wishes, who is one of my favorite chefs on You Tube, is the creator of this recipe.  What I love about this recipe is the topping is made with a corn muffin mix like Jiffy and the filling sounds delicious.  I really can't wait to make this.

Cheese Grits Casserole

Cheese grits casserole has to be awesome since grits is so awesome, in my opinion.  Love grits so much, one of my favorites.  Sometimes I make a pot of grits, throw some butter and cheese in it and that is my meal.  Very satisfying.  I am going to have to try this recipe.

Chicken Alfredo Rice Casserole

Chicken Alfredo sauce sounds awesome.  I would love to try this recipe, however, there was a discussion in the comments about minute rice.  I hate minute rice, but love white rice.  What I would do is make more sauce . . . maybe on the side?

The recipes from All Recipes are usually pretty good since they are tested before posted.  This recipe is probably no exception.  My problem with it is minute rice, but it sounds delicious.

Loving the chicken casseroles I have been finding.

These recipes are perfect for leftover chicken or turkey. 

Since I am now cooking for one, I rarely make chicken because it is cheaper and easier to buy a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store.  Good idea to use with this recipe.

Rotel King Ranch Chicken

The Captain and I really loved trying out all these new chicken recipes.  The versatility of chicken is amazing! 

This recipe offers the creaminess of the cream of chicken soup with the added kick of Rotel tomato and chilies.  Love the corn tortillas and cheese added to the casserole, like a chicken lasagna.

How can you go wrong if one of the ingredients is cream of chicken soup?

Fast and easy recipe, great for beginner cooks!
