Instructions

  • Serve warm. 

Notes

Store any leftover casserole by covering the casserole dish in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and storing it in the refrigerator for up to three days.
To make this dish ahead of time: Once you have the dish prepared, stop at the step just before placing it into the oven. Instead, cover it with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it into the refrigerator. Once you are ready to cook, preheat the oven and then bake the casserole per the recipe card instructions.
