Notes
Freezer safe: this is a recipe I like to double or triple. It doesn’t take much more work to double it. You can easily make one for now, then another to put in the freezer. If you do this for the freezer, don’t bake. Prepare the casserole. Then let it cool. Cover and freeze. To reheat: let thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Then bake at 350 for 40 to 50 minutes, covered.
