4. Add Cheese and Toppings:
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the chili.
- Add diced onion if desired.
5. Bake:

6. Serve:
- Garnish with sliced jalapeños, additional onions, or your favorite toppings. Serve hot with a side of fries, salad, or veggies.
Notes
- For extra flavor, toast the buns lightly before assembling the casserole.
- Add a layer of crushed tortilla chips on top of the cheese for added crunch.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
