  4. Gently stir in 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
  5. Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
