Bake and serve
Bake for 10–15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and golden. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve hot.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving: Serve straight from the oven with a side of crusty bread or a fresh green salad. A glass of red wine like Chianti or Sangiovese pairs wonderfully with this dish.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until hot throughout. If you’re making it in advance, assemble the dish and refrigerate it before baking—just add 5–10 extra minutes to the bake time.
Variations:
Spicy kick: Add red pepper flakes or a pinch of cayenne to the meat sauce.
Different meats: Use ground turkey, chicken, or Italian sausage for a lighter or spicier flavor.
Cheese swap: Try Fontina, provolone, or a cheese blend for different melting textures.
Vegetable addition: Mix in some sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or zucchini for extra nutrition.
Make it creamy: Add more cream or a spoonful of mascarpone for a luxurious finish.
