Allrecipes' editorial guidelines Published on March 20, 2020 Close Photo: Allrecipes Magazine Sunday dinners are usually a labor of love — the kind of slow-cooked, pure comfort meal that finishes out a relaxing weekend and gives you a boost for the week ahead. These casseroles bring the whole meal together in a single baking dish for slice-and-serve ease. Brunchers will love breakfast-themed bakes with eggs, hash browns, and cheese. Layered casseroles in Italian and Mexican flavors will also please your family. And since the classics are still at the top of any favorites list, there's the requisite Chicken Divan, Tuna Noodle, and Tamale Pie. Just a few reasons why Sunday dinner is still our favorite meal of the week. 01 of 15 World's Best Lasagna View Recipe Bobby Emrick If you're Italian-American, Sunday supper isn't complete without lasagna. If not, you should make it a new tradition. This sausage and beef version has over 18,000 fans and counting. 02 of 15 Layered Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas View Recipe Angela F. Instead of filling and rolling each enchilada, treat tortillas like lasagna noodles and layer them between the sauce, chicken, black beans, and cheese. It's brilliant, fast, and delicious. 03 of 15 A Scotsman's Shepherd Pie View Recipe CrickettP Creator Larry Short simmers ground lamb in a stout gravy before layering it in a casserole dish with mashed potatoes.

"This recipe was such a standout I know we will be having it regularly," says Walter Dervin. 08 of 15 Carol's Baked Ziti Casserole View Recipe Molly Ricotta, Parmesan, and mozzarella make this noodle bake extra cheesy and comforting.
