Best Onion Topped Hot Dish Recipes

HAMBURGER AND MACARONI HOT DISH

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes; drain.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef and minced onion in the hot skillet until almost browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic to ground beef mixture and cook until beef is browned, 2 to 3 more minutes; drain and discard excess grease.
• Stir macaroni, tomato soup, corn, Italian seasoning, and seasoned salt into ground beef mixture; top with American cheese slices. Cover skillet until cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes; stir well.

GRANDMA'S HAMBURGER HOT DISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a casserole dish. Arrange noodles in prepared dish.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef, onion, and celery in the hot skillet until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Stir cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, mushrooms, and milk into beef mixture until evenly combined; pour over noodles into prepared dish. Cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove foil and sprinkle cashews over mixture; continue baking until bubbling, about 30 minutes more.

BUTTERNUT, BACON AND APPLE HOTDISH

Steps:

• For the filling: Lay the bacon in a large oven-safe skillet (I like to use a cast-iron pan or braiser) and turn the heat to medium. Cook, flipping once, until crisp on both sides, about 7 minutes total. Remove from the heat and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool slightly.
• Drain half the bacon grease from the skillet, leaving just enough to coat the skillet. Add the onions and turn the heat to medium-high. Saute until soft, about 10 minutes. Add the squash, thyme, some salt, a few turns of pepper and a few pinches of crushed red pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, 10 more minutes. Add the wine and broth. Roughly chop the bacon and add it to the skillet along with the apples. Bring the mixture to a light boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, while you make the biscuits.
• For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add the butter and, using a food processor, pastry cutter or your hands, incorporate the butter until the mixture is the consistency of raw oatmeal. Mix in the cream until the mixture comes together to form a dough. Turn it out onto a floured work surface, pat it out to 3/4-inch thick and then cut out round biscuits, re-rolling scraps as needed.
• Turn off the heat before dotting the top of the skillet with the biscuits. Brush the biscuits with the beaten egg and top with black pepper. Bake until the biscuits are golden brown, cooked through and flaky, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven and serve right from the skillet!

HOTDISH (TATER TOT CASSEROLE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until soft and beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Add the beef to the onions and cook until the meat is brown, stirring and scraping the bottom of the skillet to release the yummy brown bits, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the beef and onion mixture from the skillet into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Scatter the green beans and corn evenly on top. Spread the cream of mushroom soup over top and top with frozen potato tots. Bake uncovered for 1 hour; the potato tots should be golden brown. Serve.

• Peel turnips, cut in half lenthwise, then slice each half crosswise into thin slices.
• Arrange alternate layers of turnip and onion in a greased 2 1/2-quart casserole dish.
• Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
• Dissolve bouillon cube in boiling water and pour over vegetables.
• Dot with butter or margarine.
