For an extra layer of flavor, sauté 4 ounces of sliced mushrooms in butter until softened before adding them to the cheese sauce.
A sprinkle of toasted breadcrumbs or grated Parmesan cheese on top before baking adds a delightful textural contrast.
For a richer flavor, use Gruyere or a blend of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese.
If you prefer a less processed flavor, consider making a homemade cream of mushroom soup from scratch.
