Casseroles.....
....Were something else Mom didn't do. I don't think they appealed to her, and they almost certainly wouldn't have appealed to my Dad.
Which was funny in a way, because his Mom, my sainted grandmother Mama Mac, slung a mean casserole, a habit she'd picked up after her son left home.
She made one I still make today - it's raw rice, sliced onions, sauteed hamburger, sliced celery, sliced carrots, canned tomatoes, and tomato juice, all layered in a ginormous casserole dish. Cooks up into the most savory thing you can imagine, and it's actually quite reasonably healthy if you stick to the leaner grades of hamburger, drained well after sauteeing.
