So Lately I have been trying to learn new recipes. I find that even though I enjoy cooking and love food I end up cooking the same kinds of food with the same cooking techniques and ingredients. I know for most people Chicken Casserole is a dish they probably have all the time and for some, its the only thing they know how to make but for me it is unfamiliar territory. I have never had a true Chicken Casserole, Beef Casserole or Vegetable Casserole but today that trend ends and I will attempt the first casserole dish in my home. So after researching casserole dishes online I have realized its basically meat, sauce and cheese. You can add vegetables, noodles, rice, etc. but for the most part its those 3 primary ingredients placed in a casserole dish and baked. You can almost call it a soup du jour. Why? Pretty much your taking whatever is in your fridge and placing it in a casserole dish, and then you bake it. Casserole du jour!

Now I think this recipe is little basic for me but for my first casserole dish I think its a great start. My next casserole dish following this recipe will be much better so I hope you stay close as I will not disappoint.
