Serve immediately and garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
For an even richer flavor, try using roasted garlic instead of garlic powder.
Consider adding a dollop of sour cream or cream cheese for extra creaminess.
Experiment with different cheeses like Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or a blend of your favorites.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop, adding a splash of milk if needed to restore creaminess.
