- Microwave for 1-3 minutes until the cheese has melted and the sauce has thickened.
- Enjoy as is or add your favourite toppings.
Top tip: Mix it up and make your own variation by mixing through cooked broccoli or bacon, chopped tomato and fresh herbs or sprinkle with toasted panko bread crumbs for a crunchy topping.
