For a richer flavor, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream, but be mindful that the sauce may not thicken as much. A pinch of nutmeg adds a warm, aromatic note to the dish. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash of milk or water to reach the desired consistency. Fresh peas can be substituted for frozen, but may require a slightly longer cooking time. Consider adding some crispy bacon bits for a savory twist. This dish pairs wonderfully with roasted chicken, grilled salmon, or as part of a vegetarian meal alongside mashed potatoes.
