For a richer flavor, try using a combination of cheddar and Gruyère cheese. Add a can of diced tomatoes (drained) to the beef mixture for extra flavor and vegetables. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or green onions for a pop of color and freshness.

Feb 24, 2025This is a keeper! I've made it several times, and it's always a hit. I sometimes add a little bit of cream cheese to the sauce for extra creaminess.
