Notes
You can substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken for a leaner version.
For a vegetarian option, use mushrooms and substitute for a plant-based beef alternative or skip the meat altogether and increase the amount of mushrooms.
Feel free to add vegetables like peas or bell peppers for extra color and nutrition.
