# Directions:

07 - Pour remaining Alfredo sauce evenly over all filled tortillas. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella and Parmesan on top.
08 - Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes.
09 - Remove foil and continue baking for 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and golden.
10 - Let casserole rest for 5 minutes before garnishing with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
