In american english, I learned british english in school.
I would have said sure it is, and I'm very american
I threw my old peppers mushroom and potatoes into a big pan, threw some cheap legbacks on top, drenched it in olive oil, salt, pepper and herbs de provence and baked for an hour. Easiest thing in the world to make and tastes better than nearly anything else for the amount of effort required.
I probably should add a picture.

Chicken leg quarters are very tasty, very filling, and very forgiving, and I do not eat them nearly often enough.

Roasted pork shoulder is my goto for this category (if you have 4-5 hours to wait).
Made a lazy spaghetti dinner in the rice cooker. Boiled some veggie noodles then added some parmesan tomato sauce from a jar, with some diced tomatoes from a can, some fresh mushrooms I chopped up, and some cut up store brand block mozzarella. Let it warm for like two or three hours, stirring occasionally, and it was a treat when that cheese melted and mixed with everything

I have a hard time cooking big fancy meals when it's just me here. So:
Brown 1lb ground beef seasoned with salt, pepper, and Penzey's "Old World" spice blend (paprika, salt, sugar, celery, garlic, onion, black pepper, parsley, dill seed, caraway, turmeric, dill weed, bay leaf, marjoram, thyme, savory, basil and rosemary). They say 1-2 tsp per lb. I put about 2tbs. Let cool.
Prepare 1 box of scalloped potatoes as per the instructions. Mix in ground beef before putting in oven. Cook as per the box.
Put a couple cups of mozzarella cheese on top, and brown under broiler.
Tadaa! It's pretty tasty, actually. But could use a couple dabs of Frank's Red Hot.

Finally had some time with the family out of the house so I could cook up the lutefisk.
Cooked it a couple ways. One the more traditional, boiled and then covered in butter sauce with bacon.
The other more American, deep fried.
Fried is definitely the more edible way. It almost tastes like regular fish.

I'm failling to see a big difference with regular Hachis Parmentier, though I don't know what scalloped potatoes are.
Still yummy, obviously.
Scalloped potatoes are basically au grautin potatoes with a thicker sliced potato and no cheese. Basically a creamy baked potato dish.
edit: more than you wanted to know about both dishes lol https://www.masterclass.com/articles/au-gratin-vs-scalloped-potatoes
I'm famliar with Hachis Parmentier, but around these parts we called it "cowboy casserole". The thing I cobbled together isn't layered, but rather a jumble of the potatoes and beef with addition of cheese at the end. But yeah, the content and flavor profile is gonna be pretty similar.

Try this recipe and let me know what you think.
Bread
It's got all the right ingredients:
- Hamburger patty (veggie this time)
- Mushroom Gravy (usually found in Salisbury)
- Onions (not uncommon in Salisbury steak recipes)
The only odd bits are the cheese and bread. If it had been one piece of bread, I'd have called it an Open Faced veggie Salisbury Steak.

At first glance I thought you’d made a sandwich with bacon, cocktail franks, and a hamburger, all with gravy. I was going to call it, “An Entire Week’s Worth Of Sodium.”

Nobody to cook for here but me...so I present:
Frozen quarter pound burger patty from Sam's Club, on King's Hawaiian bun with lettuce, tomato and cheese.
Realized I didn't have any hamburger dills in the fridge, but I did have whole pickles. After slicing those, they're so much better than the pre-sliced ones...crisper and a bit more flavor. I may never buy pre-sliced hamburger dills again.

They're the perfect size for the Food Lion deli sammiches. Om to the nom.
