Mine is tuna casserole and other casseroles such as cheeseburger casserole. I like making casseroles because you can turn almost anything into a casserole.

    Recently, I’ve really taken a liking to Chicken and Gnocchi soup, I go heavy on everything but broth. It’s rather cheap, and while I’m not strapped for cash, just thinking “This meal only cost 75¢” is a wild thought when I see a Chipotle burrito going for $16.75. Biggest thing is that it’s rather easy to make, and it could be fast, but I tend to take an hour per batch, and do so in bulk. I do have photos of the soup, but my lighting ain’t quite the best, so I don’t quite feel it’s up to standards visually of a community like this.

    So far my approach is:

    • one really big pot
    • One small bag of large shredded carrots
    • Half white onion
    • Simmer in 2tb oil until it starts softening.
    • Season: Black pepper, 3 cloves garlic, paprika, mustard powder, dash of allspice, and optionally cayanne.
    • Add 4 cups chicken broth
    • Add three chicks breasts, simmer until 165°F
    • remove, shred, and reinsert chicken
    • Add 1.5 cups heavy cream
    • Add 1-2tb corn starch
    • A whole ass carton of spinach.
    • Parmesan and season to taste.

    Having this with some breadsticks or chunks torn off a loaf is optimal, but only if torn off like a caveman.
