Notes

Prep ahead. Assemble the casserole, cover, and refrigerate overnight. Let the casserole sit on the counter while the oven preheats and bake.
Freezer meal. Fully bake and cool. Cover the casserole with plastic and again with foil and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge and bake uncovered in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes, or until warm. Add toppings and serve.
Store leftovers in an airtight container(s) and keep in the fridge for about 3 days or freeze for 2-3 months. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
