Notes
You can substitute ground chicken, pork, or turkey.
Vary your results by using bell peppers, corn, spinach, or or other veggies!
Serve over rice or pasta.
Some topping suggestions: shredded cheese, cilantro, chopped chives, sour cream, or some nice buttery crackers for extra texture.
Store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days. Also freezes well in an airtight container. Make extra and freeze it for an easy meal later on!
