Our Slow Cooked Chicken, Bacon and Mushroom Casserole is a delicious and highly versatile meal base. While this meal base is perfect on its own, its savoury flavour can easily be made into new dishes. Here are five simple ways to get more from your meal bases.
1. Classic Casserole
Pour the meal base into an oven dish. Top with grated cheese, breadcrumbs, or a sheet of puff pastry. Bake until golden. Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted kumara, or steamed greens.
2. Hearty PieÂ
Line a pie dish with pastry, add the heated meal base, and cover with a second pastry sheet. Crimp the edges, vent the top, and bake according to pastry instructions until golden brown.
3. Creamy Pasta Bake
Cook your favourite pasta and mix it with the heated casserole in an oven-safe dish. Cover generously with grated cheese and bake until melted and golden. Add some garlic bread if you’re feeling fancy.
4. Easy Stuffed Vegetables
For a lighter option, halve capsicums, large mushrooms, or zucchini. Fill them with the heated casserole, top with cheese, and bake until the vegetables are tender. Serve with a fresh green salad.
5. Cheesy tacos
Spread a thin layer of the meal base onto a tortilla, sprinkle with grated cheese, fold in half and eat. Add some salsa for a fresh element.
