I need some ideas for food to take to a dinner. It will be the only dish and it has to hold up to some time or waiting to eat ( maybe an hour or so). Thanks for your ideas
i have a great easy recipe called tater tot casserole. this recipe feeds 6 people, one cup serving each. you may have to double or triple the recipe depending on how many people you are serving. maybe bring a salad to go with it.
what you need:
1 lb. ground beef
1 small onion chopped finely
1 can cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup ( 10 3/4 ounces ) i like the chicken better.
1/4 cup milk
1 cup frozen mixed veggies ( peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
1 cup shredded cheddar
1 lb. package of tater tots
how to make it:
heat oven to 375 degrees.
brown meat with onions, stirring occasionally, drain. spoon into 2 quart casserole dish
mix soup and milk, pour over meat mixture, top with remaining ingredients.
bake 45 minutes or until potatoes are golden brown
i've made this many times and i've never had anyone not like it. hope this helps.
I hot pot is a great dish for these sort of things. You can use any meat you like (if you are using meat) and then use a range of vegetables; diced potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, tomatoes in sauce, onion, garlic. Simply fry the onions and garlic, add the meat and veg into an oven pot with either a packet mix for caserole or a stock cube with a tin of chopped tomatoes, and put it in a medium to low oven for 1 1/2 hours. You can also do this in a pan on the hob. I'm sure you'll be able to find a more specific recipe on the internet to what ingredients you have.
If you have a crock pot it is ideal to take to pot luck or any dinner. because it can be set on low and left until dinner time.If you cook something in a pan in the oven like Lasagne then it would have to be reheated or you'd have to bring something that can be eaten cold,
