The possibilities for variation are endless when it comes to making ‘One Cast Iron Skillet Casseroles’. And with the temperatures dropping outdoors it makes for a good excuse to start cooking more indoors. Substitute other vegetables if you don’t have these ingredients.
The following antelope burger pasta bake was delicious and of course you can always substitute other wild game such as elk burger or venison burger.
