casseroles

One-pot oven meals

Casseroles is the plural of casserole—a deep dish used for slow-cooking in an oven, or the food prepared in such a dish.

A casserole typically combines meat, vegetables, and starch in a sauce, baked until the flavors meld: She brought three casseroles to the potluck.

The dish is associated with home cooking and communal meals, often appearing at funerals and family gatherings.
