I'm looking for something different to cook. Do you have any good salad or casserole recipes you could share?

2 pounds yellow squash, sliced
1 small onion, chopped
1 small bell pepper, chopped
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 1/2 pounds cheddar cheese
1 cup Italian bread crumbs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Saute squash, onion, and pepper in a saute pan with olive oil until squash is soft. Add salt and white pepper. Put into a casserole dish. Mix the cheese and 1/2 cup of bread crumbs into the casserole dish with the vegetables. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of bread crumbs on top of casserole. Bake until golden brown.
3 cups milk
Bay leaf
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Freshly grated nutmeg
Salt and pepper
1 cup grated white cheddar
1 1/2 cups chopped green beans, cut in 2-inch pieces, blanched
3 cups sliced assorted wild mushrooms (such as portobello, shiitake, or cremini)
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1/2 cup buttered bread crumbs
Make sauce: In a saucepan scald milk and bay leaf. In another saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook, whisking constantly, 2 minutes.
Remove bay leaf from milk and slowly pour into butter-flour mixture, whisking constantly. Season, to taste, with mustard, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add cheddar, stirring until melted and smooth.
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Fold green beans and mushrooms into sauce, then transfer to a buttered casserole. Sprinkle top with Parmesan and buttered bread crumbs. Bake 50 minutes, or until casserole is bubbly and topping is lightly browned.

Kraft, I have some. I just bought a few of those pillsbury and Lipton soup phamplets/cookbook thingies on quick meals casseroles and salads. I'll have to read through them but the cover ones look really good! I'll post back later which ones I think you might want to try that sound good.

Twelve, are you a good cook? I had an aunt that could cook like you wouldn't believe. She made the best butter tarts in the world. I'd love to die in butter tart sauce.
