Tips and Tricks

For the best Spinach and Cheese Crescent Casserole, avoid under or over-baking to ensure the eggs are perfectly set without becoming rubbery. Let the casserole rest for about 10 minutes after baking so it can fully set before slicing. Store leftovers in an airtight container or tightly covered dish for up to 4 days. To make it extra cheesy, add a sprinkle of cheese on top near the end of cooking. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven, and if it begins to brown too quickly, cover it with foil to protect the top.
