- Use a variety of cheeses. This will give your casserole a more complex flavor. Some good options include cheddar, mozzarella, Parmesan, and Gruyère.
- Don't overcook the rice. It should be cooked through, but still have a little bite to it.
- Use a casserole dish that is large enough to hold all of the ingredients. You don't want the casserole to be too crowded, or the rice will not cook evenly.
- Bake the casserole until it is golden brown and bubbly. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
- Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it to set.
