Notes
This casserole is highly adaptable - you can substitute the beef with chicken, turkey, or mushrooms for a vegetarian version. The cheese can be swapped for Swiss, cheddar, or pepper jack. Add roasted red peppers or jalapeños for extra heat. Leftovers taste even better the next day as the flavors deepen overnight in the fridge.
