Notes
Stir in cooked chicken for a more filling dish.
Mix in shredded cheddar or Parmesan for extra richness.
Use cream of mushroom or celery soup for a different flavor profile.
Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce for some spice.
Fold in veggies like peas, mushrooms, or broccoli for a heartier vegetarian version.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Add a splash of milk when reheating to keep the sauce creamy.
