For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a thin layer of ricotta cheese before adding the mozzarella. If using homemade meatballs, ensure they are fully cooked before adding them to the sauce. To prevent the garlic bread from becoming soggy, you can lightly toast it before assembling the casserole. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley after baking for a pop of color and freshness.
