Cassoulet

Cassoulet, the French version of casserole, is the perfect comfort food for this autumn weather we've been experiencing. A slow-cooked dish that typically contains meat and beans, there are many versions of the cassoulet in France and throughout the world.


A recent favorite that I stumbled across is this Two-Bean Cassoulet recipe from Better Homes & Gardens. This version contains chicken thighs, black beans, and butter beans.

Otherwise, there are plenty of options, from vegetarian to meatier options with lamb, pork, beef, or some combination of several carnivorous delights! There are many great recipes on the internet; otherwise, your favorite cooking magazines or French cookbooks should feature a cassoulet recipe or two for the Fall/Winter seasons.

Have you ever made a cassoulet or do you have a favorite casserole recipe that's your go-to favorite for chilly nights? Let us know, as we'd love to hear about it!
