For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with an equal amount of crumbled vegetarian ground meat substitute or 1 (15-ounce) can of drained and rinsed pinto beans. Add a diced onion and a minced garlic clove to the skillet with the ground beef for extra flavor depth. Spice it up by adding a diced jalapeño pepper or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the stew. Top with your favorite Southwestern toppings such as diced avocado, chopped cilantro, or a dollop of guacamole. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
