Notes
- Bake the toast first to keep it crispy after adding toppings.
- Use freshly grated parmesan for a smoother sauce.
- Add vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for extra flavor.
- Substitute part of the cream with milk for a lighter version.
- Reheat in the oven to maintain crisp texture.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Avoid freezing as sauce may separate and bread may become soggy.
- Add chili flakes for a slight spicy kick.
