Make a casserole for dinner. It’s easy, convenient, and delicious.
Yes, Chizzy has turned me on to the exciting world of casseroles recently by telling me she was craving a tater-tot casserole. I knew of casseroles from my childhood, but I never stopped to appreciate the culinary miracle that they are. I’ve done three now, basing each loosely from online recipes, and they all turned out pretty dang tasty with leftovers for lunch the next day.
You really can’t go wrong, gentlemen. Just prepare it in the afternoon and stick it in the fridge. When the bread-winner comes home from a tough day, just pop it in the oven for 30 minutes while you cater to their other needs such as foot massages. The casserole doesn’t even necessarily have to come out in a solid form if you don’t want. Just dump the soupy mess in a bowl, add Tabasco to taste, and dive in. I’m going to have to figure out some veggie recipes now though because Chizzy is suffering from post-traumatic meat disorder after realizing she may have been eating horse sausage without her knowledge. I find it fairly tasty myself.
I never actually found any tater-tots, but they did have these lovely potato balls that worked almost as well.
Mmmmmm...
Potatoes balls and horse sausage...mmmm must be Europe.

CMH, October 12, 2005 07:59 PM:Awesome!!! Go Bryan. I especially like the part about the foot massages. Maybe you can teach J how to make a casserole while we're there?
Ignacio, October 14, 2005 07:25 AM:Nah, not a Mr. Mom (yet?). Trevahn (our 2.5 yr old son) just started Montessori school, full-time. So, we're kind of in a trial period. If he does okay, all is well. If he shows sign of not being ready, I'd like to try to be a stay-at-home dad. It makes more sense for Kat to work since she earns more dough ;)
