For a make-ahead option, prepare the casserole through step 5, cover, and refrigerate. Reheat slowly on the stovetop or bake covered at 350°F until heated through. If using cooked chicken instead of ground beef, skip step 1 and add the cooked chicken in step 6 along with the cheese. Use your favorite type of shredded cheese blend for different flavor profiles.
