  9. Optional: garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Tips for the Best Casserole

  • Slice potatoes thinly for even cooking and creamy texture.
  • Covering the dish with foil prevents the cheese from browning too quickly.
  • Let the casserole rest for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow it to set.
  • Add cooked bacon bits or sautéed onions for extra flavor.
