For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a diced jalapeño to the ground beef while browning. Feel free to substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef. Add other vegetables such as bell peppers, zucchini, or carrots to customize this dish. To make this dish vegetarian, omit the ground beef and add an extra can of chili beans or black beans. This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled to feed a crowd. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
