  9. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.

Notes

This casserole is delicious on its own but can be paired with a garden salad or roasted vegetables. It holds up well in the fridge and tastes great when reheated. Variations include using shredded rotisserie chicken, more vegetables, or adding jalapeños for spice.
