Hotdish

A hotdish is a type of one-pot casserole commonly enjoyed in the Upper Midwest, especially Minnesota. It typically consists of a main ingredient such as meat, potatoes, or vegetables, combined with a binding element like canned soup or cream, and often topped with cheese or crumbs. The mixture is baked until hot and bubbly, making it a convenient, hearty, and budget-friendly meal suitable for families or gatherings. Its simplicity and comforting flavors have made hotdish a regional classic and a staple of home-cooked traditions.
