Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the casserole to set slightly.
For a richer flavor, sauté the onions and mushrooms in butter before adding them to the sauce.
Feel free to add other vegetables like peas, carrots, or celery to the casserole for added nutrition and flavor.
To freeze the casserole, assemble it in a freezer-safe dish, cover tightly with plastic wrap and foil, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before baking.
If you don't have buttery round crackers, Ritz crackers or even bread crumbs can be used as a substitute.
