A few years ago just for fun I decided to spend a week cooking dinner exclusively from Betty Crocker’s New Good and Easy cookbook published in 1962. That meant a lot of casseroles with everything from ground beef to hot dog slices.

And guess what? My husband and I generally loved it. Casseroles aren’t over the top and offer comfort at the end of the day plus potentially leftovers at the end of the meal. They’re also convenient which is what midcentury home cooks wanted. Which is what I want in 2023.
