In Not Your Mother's Casseroles, Faith Durand is out to rescue casserole cookery from canned soups, and does an exemplary job. Besides the usual main-dish casseroles, she includes recipes for breakfasts, desserts and vegetables.

Having a bumper crop of collard greens in my patio garden, I tried Braised Old-Fashioned Collard Greens, baked with bacon, onion and a bit of broth. The greens melted into the broth. A little brown rice to soak up the juice made it a healthy main dish. Other recipes I've copied to try later include Mixed Greens Pasta Casserole; Baked Shells with Zucchini, Gouda, and Herbs; and Pot Chicken and Potatoes Baked in Cinnamon-Saffron Milk, but I was tempted to copy many more. Instead, I'll just put it on my wishlist. ( )
