Ring Bologna Hotdish Recipe
I couldn’t call myself a true Minnesotan without having one or two solid hotdish recipes up my sleeve. If you’re not familiar, “hotdish” encompasses a range of oven-baked dishes, mostly pasta or rice-based. They can contain various types of meat and vegetables, often flavored with canned soups. Hotdishes show up en masse at church potlucks here in the Midwest.
This hotdish recipe is one my mom has been making for decades. There’s nothing fancy about it. A hearty weeknight meal that will easily feed five. Hotdish is perfect for this time of the year, when it feels good to pre-preheat your oven to keep the kitchen extra toasty warm.
If you’re cooking for a large group and looking for something that doesn’t cost a lot, hotdishes are your golden ticket. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family has over the years!
