: Hi Suzy,I absolutely love using the Family Skillet for large gatherings and events! One of my go-to recipes is a cheesy chicken and broccoli casserole. I start by cooking chicken breast in the skillet, then adding in cooked broccoli and a can of cream of chicken soup. I top it all off with shredded cheese and let it bake in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly. It's always a hit with a crowd!Another great recipe is a breakfast hash using the Family Skillet. I cook up some diced potatoes, onions, and bell peppers, then add in cooked sausage or bacon and crack a few eggs on top. I cover the skillet and let the eggs cook to perfection. It's a hearty and delicious meal that feeds a lot of people.I hope these ideas help! Let me know if you need any further inspiration. Happy cooking!Best,
