For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or a dash of hot sauce to the sauce. If you prefer a richer sauce, substitute half-and-half for the milk. Serve over toast, rice, or pasta for a complete and satisfying meal. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
