Vickys Venison Cider Casserole, GF DF EF SF NF
I bought some diced wild venison from our local Farmers market recently. The theory is that people who are allergic to beef and other commercially farmed livestock (like my son Jack) can often tolerate wild red meat and game. Unfortunately he didn't manage it this time but it made a great casserole for the rest of us

To thicken the gravy, strain the liquid into a saucepan and boil. Add 2 tsp gravy granules or 2 tsp cornflour mixed with 1 tbsp cold water into the pan and stir. Keep stirring throughout to avoid clumping

Add the gravy back into the casserole and serve with crusty bread or seasonal vegetables

Bisto Original Gravy Granules in the brown cardboard rectangular box is dairy, egg and soy-free with but contains wheat which is a shame as the main ingredient is potato starch. Bisto Best Gravy in the glass jars are free from gluten, dairy and egg but contain soya lecithins. There are other free-from gravy granules available such as the Kallo brand that are also gluten-etc-free

Chicken and veggie casserole Chicken and veggie casserole
If you don’t have cooked chicken then use 1 pack of boneless chicken breast and cut into small pieces and add salt and pepper then place in the greased casserole dish and bake for 25 min at 375. DRAIN LIQUID once it’s done and just swap the layers of chicken and rice and repeat sauce and cheese layers as described.

Vegetable casserole Vegetable casserole
Takes a while with prep work, but worth it in the end. I actually came up with this recipe accidentally while trying to make pizza. I wanted to get fancy with the sauce, but added too many vegetable so it was more like a stew, so I changed the recipe midway from pizza to casserole.
