    Tips & Tricks (5)

    • Squash Prep Perfection šŸ”Ŗ
      Dice butternut squash into uniform 1/2-inch cubes to ensure even cooking and consistent texture throughout the casserole.
    • Cracker Crunch Technique šŸ„ 
      Crush Ritz crackers just before topping to maintain maximum crispiness and prevent soggy breadcrumbs.
    • Moisture Magic šŸ’§
      Pat ground turkey dry before cooking to achieve better browning and prevent excess water release during cooking.
    • Cheese Melting Mastery šŸ§€
      Grate mozzarella cheese fresh for superior melting quality and more even distribution in the casserole.
    • Layering Flavor Technique šŸ„˜
      SautƩ onions before adding to the casserole to develop a deeper, more caramelized flavor profile.
