Notes
- Use High-Quality Steak – Ribeye gives the best juicy, tender texture, but sirloin works well too.
- Shred Cheese Fresh – Pre-packaged shredded cheese contains anti-caking agents that affect melting.
- Cook Pasta Al Dente – Overcooked pasta gets mushy when mixed with the sauce.
- Customize the Cheese – Try swapping in white American cheese, cheddar, or Monterey Jack.
- Make It Spicy – Add red pepper flakes or jalapeños for a kick!
