Tips:
- Use a variety of ground meat for a more flavorful casserole. A combination of ground beef, pork, and sausage is a great option.
- Don't overcook the ground meat. Cook it until it is just browned, as overcooking will make it tough.
- Use your favorite sloppy joe sauce recipe or a store-bought sauce. If using a store-bought sauce, be sure to taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed.
- Add some vegetables to the casserole for a healthier meal. Diced onions, bell peppers, and corn are all good options.
- Use a variety of cheeses for a more flavorful casserole. A combination of cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan is a great option.
- Top the casserole with crushed potato chips or bread crumbs before baking for a crispy topping.
