Notes

Storage Information
Refrigerator: Allow the casserole to cool completely before storing. Cover it tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for 4-5 days.
Freezing: Let the casserole cool completely, then wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil or place it in a freezer-safe airtight container and freeze for up to 2-3 months.
Reheating: To reheat, if refrigerated, preheat your oven to 350°F and bake the casserole, covered, for about 20-30 minutes or until heated through. If frozen, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before reheating. For a quicker option, you can reheat individual servings in the microwave, too.
