The ease of one-dish dinners such as casseroles are known to all of us. When I chose this theme I wanted this roundup to be a reference for all of us who have a tight daily schedule but still want to serve up a delicious meal.
With 60 entries this One-Dish Dinner roundup is going to be one very useful reference to browse through. Hope you enjoy the roundup. I thank all my guests who joined me and brought their wonderful creations.

- Finally, Kathy Crawford in Salem, OR sent me this delicious sounding crockpot recipe:
Crock Pot Roast
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
2 cans beef broth
1 package dry onion soup mix
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 tablespoons red pepper sauce (Tabasco)
1 3-4 lb roast (any kind since it will cook all day)
1 onion sliced thin
3-4 potatoes peeled and chunked
3-4 carrots peeled and chunked or 2 handfuls of baby carrots
1 cup fresh sliced mushrooms
Salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons cornstarch
In crockpot, mix together first 5 ingredients. Add meat and vegetables. Spoon some of the soup mixture over meat and vegetables to distribute flavors. Add salt and pepper to your taste. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours. Remove meat and vegetables to serving tray. Turn crock pot on high. Mix cornstarch with water and add to broth mixture. Stir to thicken gravy. Pour gravy over meat and vegetables and serve.
I use a 5-quart oval crockpot. Increase or decrease ingredients to fit your crockpot. - The Lierate and the Liberate Foodie - Easy Enchiladas
