5. Reheating: When you’re ready to enjoy the casserole, you can reheat it in the oven or microwave.  Cover the dish with foil to prevent the top from burning while reheating in the oven.

3. Labeling: Label the container with the date of preparation and any reheating instructions, if necessary. This will help you keep track of how long it has been in the freezer and how to reheat it later.

5. Thawing and Reheating: When you’re ready to enjoy the casserole, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight. Once thawed, you can reheat it in the oven until heated through.
