There's nothing like a good casserole to fill the belly on a cold night. And when you don't have time to whip up something new during the work week, just cook some of these casseroles in advance, and pull them out for easy dinners the rest of the week.
My easy Lasagna recipe can be made with or without meat. It's packed with protein, vitamins and calcium. Baked Spaghetti a la Pizza is always a winner with the kids.
And if you're looking for a great vegetarian make-ahead meal, try my Quinoa and Butternut Squash Gratin.
Soups make terrific make-ahead meals too. Try my split pea soup with barley with a nice slice of homemade sweet potato bread or chicken soup with homemade whole wheat bread.
