About Makaronilaatikko

Makaronilaatikko, translating to "macaroni casserole," is a beloved Finnish comfort food known for its simple yet satisfying flavors. This traditional dish typically consists of pasta, browned ground meat (commonly beef or pork), eggs, milk, and often a topping of grated cheese. The ingredients are mixed and baked until the casserole is golden and set, creating a hearty and filling meal. Makaronilaatikko is rich in protein from the meat and eggs, and carbohydrates from the pasta, making it an energy-dense dish ideal for colder climates. While it provides valuable nutrients and is highly customizable, its calorie count and fat content can be high, especially if made with fatty meats or excess cheese. Lighter variations, such as using lean ground meat or whole-grain pasta, can boost its nutritional profile. Easy to prepare and widely enjoyed, Makaronilaatikko represents Finnish home-cooking at its coziest.
