- If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- To save time, you can use a pre-made cornbread mix instead of making your own cornbread from scratch.
- If you like your casserole to be extra cheesy, you can add an extra 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the top before baking.
