For a richer flavor, use ground sirloin or ground chuck. Add a splash of hot sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little kick. Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as green beans, carrots, or bell peppers. If you don't have seasoned salt, you can use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. To make ahead, prepare the casserole up to the point of adding the final cheese topping. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, add the cheese and bake as directed, adding a few minutes to the cooking time if needed.
