Notes

For extra flavor, add some minced garlic when sautéing the mushrooms. You can use homemade marinara sauce for a fresher taste or store-bought for convenience. Don’t hesitate to experiment with different types of cheese for a unique twist. For those who like a bit of spice, adding red pepper flakes to the sauce can give it a nice kick. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days.
