For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg to the cheese mixture. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Gruyere or Monterey Jack, for a unique twist. To prevent sticking, make sure to grease the baking dish thoroughly. For a crispier top, broil for the last 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
