Casseroles are – to me – hearty meals that I like to have in chilly weather. They make me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

This recipe is one I haven’t ever thought of or tried. It’s a Steak-Eggplant Casserole and it sounds yummy, hearty and pretty healthy all at the same time.

A winner.

It calls for sliced chuck steak, but you could experiment with other cuts as well.

I don’t know about where you live, but it’s getting chilly here.

And when that happens, I like to eat warm meals that fix the situation from the inside out.

Beef Wellington always comes to mind.

It’s hearty. It’s beefy and flaky. And it’s so, so good.

My fave is a Bake and Serve version that I can pop in the oven and then just enjoy. There’s not a lot of preparation on my part, just heat . . . and serve.

That’s the way I like it.

This one’s a luscious filet mignon with mushroom duxelles wrapped in a flaky crust. Magnificent.

My family loves it and I don’t have to expend a lot of energy on my part. Awesome. I need to save that energy for keeping warm!
