Runza casserole, or sometimes known as bierock casserole, is a cozy, simple dish that delivers the heartwarming flavors reminiscent of the Nebraska favorite without the fuss of stuffing dough pockets. This dish draws on the heritage of German-Russian immigrants who settled in the Midwest and cleverly adapted their traditional recipes to the new grains and ingredients they found. It’s a delightful casserole that speaks of history and home—it’s perfect if you’re in search of comfort on a plate.
This hearty casserole pairs beautifully with a crisp green salad to add a touch of freshness to your meal. Alternatively, consider serving it with some pickled vegetables or beet salad to introduce a delightful vinegar contrast to the rich flavors of the filling.
