- I like to serve this casserole with a fresh salad on the side.
- For reheating, avoid the microwave. Instead, bake in an oven-safe dish at 360°F (180°C) for a few minutes until heated through.
- Mozzarella cheese is also a great alternative and can be substituted for cheddar, or use a combination of both for extra flavor
