  7. Pour the mixture into a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  8. Top with the remaining shredded cheeses.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Let stand for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a keto-friendly version, omit pasta or potatoes and use cauliflower rice or serve as is.
  • This casserole reheats well. Cover and refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until heated through.
  • You can assemble this casserole ahead of time and bake it later. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking. You may need to add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
  • This recipe is great for meal planning and can be frozen before baking. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and bake as directed.
