Notes
Add extra vegetables like bell peppers, corn, or carrots for more heartiness.
Substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
Adjust the amount of jalapenos or green chiles to control spice level.
Top with shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese for added richness.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
