It’s casserole time of year!

The weather starts to turn and our minds begin to turn to foods that bring warmth.

To celebrate the season, Southern Living has put together a tasty list of 7 beef casseroles to warm your heart and your belly.

Most use ground beef in these amazing recipes like beefy lasagna, chili hash brown bake and the classic shepherd’s pie.

Take a look at all 7 and try them out this fall. They’ll put a smile on your face and pep in your step – even when there’s a nip in the air!

Happy casseroling!

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.
