Casseroles illustrate perfectly what authentic, original, regional American cooking is all about. They are food at its most appealing: simple, delicious fare that leaves lots of room for variation and that the home cook can feel proud to serve anytime.
In Crazy for Casseroles acclaimed food writer James Villas is a man on a mission, presenting all manner of casseroles from every corner of America for every kind of meat, poultry, game, seafood, and vegetable, plus appetizer casseroles, breakfast casseroles, bread casseroles, and dessert casseroles.

They can be simple and homey, like Texas Beef Hash Casserole, No-Nonsense Spinach Casserole, or Sunday Sausage, Apple, and Cheese Strata, but they can also pull out all the stops when it comes to entertaining, like Venison and Wild Mushroom Bake or Deviled Crabmeat Ramekins.
