For a richer flavor, use freshly grated Parmesan cheese instead of the pre-grated kind. If using fresh mushrooms, sauté them until they release their moisture and start to brown for a deeper, more intense flavor. Don't overcook the broccoli; it should still have a slight bite to it. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end brightens the flavors and adds a touch of acidity. For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
