Incorporate the Cheeses: Sprinkle in the Parmesan and Romano cheeses into the sauce. Let the mixture simmer on low heat for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Stir often to prevent sticking and ensure even distribution of the cheeses.
-
Melt the American Cheese: As a final touch, top the sauce with 3 slices of American cheese. Let them melt into the sauce, stirring gently as they begin to incorporate.
