Here are a variety of great recipes that are perfect ways to get using your enameled cast iron beauty. Try a few and you’ll be ready to use your Dutch oven every night!
Last week I told you a little bit about my love for enameled dutch ovens. They are so pretty and hard working, it is hard not to love them.
Maybe you got one as a gift, or you’ve been pining after one in the store. But what will you use it for?
All the delicious things, that is what! I thought I would get some recipes together to give you some ideas to use that pretty pot more.

Kelly’s cheese soup is a copycat recipe my family has enjoyed for years. It is full of vegetables, pasta and creamy cheesy goodness. It’s a regional favorite and soon to be a favorite for you as well! The thick bottom of a dutch oven helps you keep the soup warm without scorching the cheese.
