For an even richer flavor, consider using half-and-half or heavy cream instead of whole milk. A pinch of nutmeg adds a lovely warmth to the béchamel sauce. Do not boil the creamed eggs after adding the chopped eggs, as this can make them rubbery. Feel free to experiment with additional seasonings such as a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of paprika. For a vegetarian option, consider adding sauteed mushrooms or spinach to the creamed eggs. Make sure to constantly stir while making the bechamel sauce so that it's not lumpy
