Some dishes stay on family menus because their familiar flavors still work for weeknight dinners and holiday tables. This selection ranges from casseroles, quiche, and chowders to chicken, potato sides, and a few old-school favorites for brunch or snacking. Choose a generous main, a shareable side, or a dish that can be prepared ahead when a gathering calls for a well-known recipe.
