Cool temperatures prevailed this week, albeit still summer, but that got me thinking about my favorite time of year. You guessed it, fall! There are so many great things that come with the season: cozy sweatshirts, backyard bonfires, warming your hands with a mug of hot chocolate,and the smells of your favorite comfort food coming from the oven.
I hope this week’s recipe will bring smiles to your table and despite the revival of summer temperatures this weekend, there’s never a bad time for a good casserole. The entire recipe will cost you around $25 if you go with mostly store brand ingredients. You may find that you have some of the good already in your pantry, so be sure to look there before you go on a shopping trip.
Enjoy!
