  • If you’d like to spice up your Crescent-Topped Cheeseburger Casserole, we have a couple of ideas for you. For a nice, clean heat you can add a fresh jalapeño pepper: slice it into wheels and then add them to the pan with the onions and beef. If you want to keep the heat mild, you may want to rinse out the seeds. If you want some smoky heat, you could chop up a chipotle pepper or two—from a can of chipotles in adobo sauce—and add them when you stir in the pickles, ketchup and mustard.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 4 days. Remove any garnishes before storing.
