How to make the day before: Follow directions up to baking. Wrap with plastic wrap and place in fridge overnight or for 24 hours. Bake as directed.
How to freeze: Follow directions up to baking. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap three times, making sure casserole is airtight. Place in freezer for up to six months or until needed. To cook from frozen you can either let thaw in fridge 24 hours before needed, then cook as directed, or bake straight from freezer for 70–90 minutes. If cheese is beginning to brown on top but not cooked through, tent with foil until done.
