For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the beef mixture. Feel free to substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef. To ensure even baking, cover the casserole dish with foil for the first 20 minutes, then remove the foil for the remaining baking time. This casserole can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking. Add 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from chilled. Add other cheese such as mozzarella cheese for more favor.
