When it comes to holiday menu planning, casseroles always have multiple spots for breakfast, brunch, and dinner. Casseroles, both savory and sweet, are always crowd-pleasing dishes. Plus, they often can be made in advance and are super transportable to bring to a family and friend’s house for a holiday celebration.
