  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese or Italian cheese blend
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Optional garnish: chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, basil, oregano, or thyme

Instructions

Notes

  • Make Ahead: You can prep this dinner in advance and keep it stashed in the freezer until you're ready to bake it! To do so, simply follow the recipe instructions through step 2 (use a freezer-to-oven safe dish). Cover tightly with foil and freeze the unbaked casserole for up to 3 months. When you're ready to serve it, pull it out of the freezer and bake as instructed. Add a few extra minutes to the cooking time if necessary.
