Southern comfort meets festive flair 

THERE IS NOTHING LIKE the first Saturday in May here in Kentucky. The excitement in the air, the hats and fashion, cold mint juleps—and the food! If you’re hosting a Derby party this year, this Hot Brown casserole is the perfect thing to serve your guests. It’s all the things you love about a traditional Hot Brown, but in casserole form, so it’s perfect to feed a crowd.
