Recipe Tip
This recipe can be made a day ahead of time. Prepare through Step 7. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and refrigerate. To reheat, bake casserole, still covered with foil, in a 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for about 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until cheese is melted and bubbly, about 15 minutes more.
