casseroles

A family staple meal that has been in the monthly rotation for several years now and is still asked for quite often. This is great either served with refried beans and chips as a Mexican dish or with corn and steamed green beans as a casserole.

My boyfriend lived in Serbia for three years, and he always begs me to recreate some of his favorite dishes. Based on his sketchy explanations and a little of my own research into Eastern European spices, I concocted this hearty and slightly spicy bake with hamburger meat, paprika, and vegetables. Great with a glass of red wine!
