Notes

Make ahead: If you are expecting a big crowd and want to get this casserole off your to-do list you can make it the day before and reheat it before serving. However, I find the casserole tastes best if prepared just before you want to serve it. 
Storage: Leftover smoked salmon casserole will keep well in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days. You can also freeze leftovers for up to 3 months.
