Not my forte, I've got to admit...

I need to make a couple, and not in my own kitchen, so won't have all my usual gadgets to draw upon...if I did, I'd make my lasagna bolognese. Suggestions? It needs to be neutral enough that everyone can eat it, from a child of 12 to someone 80ish.

Is chicken pot pie a casserole? I guess I don't make many either but I don't know why. Mac and cheese? Shepard's pie? Moussaka (my fave but it does contain the dreaded plant of the egg)? I think that is my entire repertoire.

I will be watching this space as well. I think I need more casseroles in my life.

Hachis Parmentiere. We all loved it from the 3yr old grandson up.

Gawd, all we eat around here in the winter is casseroles.

I second the Baked Ziti, it is very good.
We like the Shrimp and Orzo Casserole from C&B
Creamy Baked Penne and Chicken with Mushrooms from BMA is excellent, but it is definitely a make-ahead recipe. It really isn't nearly as good if you don't at least give it a good long rest in the fridge (like overnight, if possible) before baking it.
Strata is also a favorite, especially with The Little Guy.

Amy,

I did this one specifically because the equipment and time required is minimal:

However, the poquillo peppers could be hard to get where you are; not sure how it would be with bell peppers. You could try.

Manicotti? All these ideas sound good.

Just thought of something... my mom makes stuffed cabbage but instead of actually stuffing she puts the cabbage leaves down as if for lasagna. I may have to make this myself, I have a strange urge for a casserole...

Hi Amy,
Do you have cover & bake? If so, I recommend either the Thanksgiving casserole (I think it has a different name but it's turkey, stuffing, cran sauce & gravy) or the beef teriyaki casserole. Both are easy, no special equipment required and definitely crowd pleasers. I'm partial towards the beef teriyaki casserole myself...

I second the Hachis Parmentier or maybe the pastitsio from the latest CC. It is great!
