Most _Glorious One-Pot Meal_ recipes can be layered the night before, kept in the fridge, and then put directly into a fully pre-heated oven for the normal amount of time. The only time this becomes an issue is when you are using a dry good such as pasta or rice. If the pasta or rice sits in the liquid overnight it will become a gummy patty. Instead, try just adding the dry ingredient when you’re building the meal and then pouring in the hydrating liquid just before it goes into the oven.
