For a richer flavor, try using Italian sausage instead of ground beef. Add some chopped bell peppers or onions to the ground beef while cooking for extra veggies. To prevent the top from browning too quickly, make sure to cover the dish with aluminum foil for the majority of the baking time. Use a high-quality mozzarella for the best flavor and melt.
