Notes
Substitute goat cheese with cream cheese for a milder flavor.
Use almond or oat milk for a lighter, dairy-friendly version.
Add spinach or kale for extra greens.
Swap mushrooms with zucchini or bell peppers for variety.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat gently on stovetop with a splash of milk for best texture.
