- Fresh green beans can be substituted for canned; just blanch them first for the best texture.
- This casserole is best served hot, fresh out of the oven.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Feel free to use other types of cheese if desired, such as cheddar or Monterey Jack.
