A recipe for hot dish first appeared in print in a 1930 cookbook compiled by Grace Lutheran Ladies Aid in Mankato. The original called for hamburger, elbow macaroni and peas. Additional staples include condensed cream soup and fried potatoes, but the basic elements include protein, vegetables, starch, sauce and a crispy topping. Almost anything can be used—as long as the dish is served hot.
Hot dish is simply a casserole, but don’t call it that within Minnesota’s borders.
