Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350F, creating an ideal environment for baking the casserole.

Notes
- Customize protein choice by swapping ground beef with ground turkey, chicken, or plant-based meat alternatives for healthier options.
- Add extra vegetables like zucchini, spinach, or mushrooms to boost nutritional value and create more complex flavor profiles.
