Give me your best dutch oven recipes

(1/4) > >>

teetime:
I am the proud new owner of a 3.5 and 5.5 quart le creuset and of a 7 quart cast iron dutch oven (the first two requested, the latter a surprise gift).  Help me christen them with something le creuset worthy!  (Our only other stove to oven covered pot is pretty light weight and I've done a braised chicken in there that was pretty good but looking to take advantage of the browning option now.)

Oh, I can't do a no-kneed bread which a year ago was behind my original interest in the 3.5 quart size and nothing else where flour can't be subbed out.

rocketgirl:
I have an enamel-coated cast iron one that's a 5 Qt I think.  I have made macaroni and cheese in it and a squash casserole (basically my mac & cheese recipe except with italian cheeses instead of jack and cheddar, and squash instead of pasta, and the addition of fresh basil).  Those are dishes that go stove to oven.  I haven't tried anything else in it.

BonitaApplebum:
First things first: what color le creuset did you get?

merigayle:
I make everything in mine! I made a sweet potato quinoa chili on Monday.

Bratwurst
Potato
Carrot
Onion
Celery
Rehydrated white bean (or canned)
Garlic

Chop and mix together to your tastes, cover in chicken stock.  Throw on the fire for 45-60 minutes.  Let the stock reduce.  Holy shit it's good, especially for camping.
