4. Bake:
   • Cover the casserole with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
   • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the casserole is heated through.
5. Serve:
   • Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
