Le Creuset Casserole Dishes for Meals
Get breakfast, lunch or dinner on the table in a snap using a Le Creuset casserole dish. Thanks to their classic looks, these versatile pans are suitable for both cooking and serving—just coordinate the rest of your tableware to the hue of the glaze and set down marble, metal or wooden trivets to protect your dining table from heat damage. For breakfast, use a Le Creuset casserole dish to whip up a batch of veggie egg strata for you and your loved ones. Serve along with toast and bacon to complete the meal. As it gets closer to dinner, get out your Le Creuset lasagna pan to create the classic Italian dish of layered noodles and ricotta cheese. Crunchy Italian bread and wine glasses of pinot noir help give the evening a special feel. Depending on what you and your crew have a taste for, also try using the casserole dish to make a hearty chicken and rice combo or even enchiladas. Taking your signature recipe to potluck? Cook it in a Le Creuset casserole dish with lid and use the top to help keep it warm on the road. Select a rectangular option for meals served in slices, or an oval casserole dish for menu items such as paella that are enjoyed by the spoonful.
Le Creuset Bakeware for Dessert
When enjoying your dinner, be sure to leave room for a little dessert—a Le Creuset baking dish is also great for whipping up sweet treats in addition to savory favorites. Think classic tiramisu, bread pudding and warm berry crisp, just to name a few. If you're an avid baker with a broad repertoire, be sure to browse Le Creuset pie dishes, bread ovens and loaf pans as well to put your pastry tools to good use. Shopping for a gift? Help a close friend round out their stock of essential baking equipment with a Le Creuset bakeware set that includes a baking pan, covered casserole dish, loaf pan and pie pan. Or, add a bakeware set to your own wedding gift registry as a helpful hint to loved ones.
