One that we like and my son made yesterday in the crock pot.
2 cans great northern beans
1 onion chopped
Bell pepper chopped
1 can diced tomatoes
1 pkg mild italian sausage (take out of casings)
a little Italian seasoning
Garlic or garlic powder
Saute sausage, onion and bell pepper. Add to crock pot with beans and seasonings and cook all day.
Really good with a pan of cornbread or cornbread muffins

When cooking for another family I like to bring it in disposable dishes if at all possible so they don't have to wash dishes and worry about returning them.  I occasionally even put in disposable plates, silverware, napkins, cups - depending on the case.  A new mother or someone really sick appreciates this.
I made a casserole for our dinner last week and my husband thought it was very good, and I thought this would be perfect for a give-away meal!

Turkey Rice Casserole
in 9x13 pan layer 3 cups cooked rice
(I omitted can of mushrooms)
10 oz. box frozen broccoli cuts - pre-cooked
4 cups cut-up turkey or chicken
slices American cheese (I used shredded Cheddar)
Mix 1 can cream of celery and 1/2 cup mayonnaise (not low-fat) - spread on top
top with French fried onions

Bake 350 degrees for 25 minutes

(I cut the recipe in 1/2 and cooked in 8x8" pan for the two of us - used the whole can of soup anyway.)

Thanks ladies, I will try these on my family, they all sound really good.
Tatertot casserole reminds me of the Duggars, I think this is the dad's favourite.

Well I made the sausage and bean recipe and my family loved it, my husband said it was excellent.  I couldn't try it because of my diet, but it looked good.  Definitely will add it to the list, maybe just not for cooking it for a mom that just had a baby.  The spice in the sausage may not be good for a nursing mom.  Nice thing about this recipe is I can make more and feed my family the same thing.
