Switch Up the Protein
- Ground turkey or chicken: Not a beef fan? No problem! Ground turkey or chicken makes a leaner, yet equally tasty, alternative.
- Veggie lovers: You can easily make this dish vegetarian by swapping the meat for a plant-based ground or even lentils.
Add More Cheese
- Pepper jack: If your family likes a little more heat, mix in some pepper jack cheese for a spicy kick.
- Cheese blend: Experiment with different cheeses—mozzarella adds a gooey stretch, while a sharp white cheddar offers a tangy twist.
Sneak in Veggies
- Corn and beans: Add a cup of corn or black beans when you mix the beef into the pasta for extra texture, flavor, and nutrients.
- Bell peppers: Sauté some diced bell peppers with the beef for a colorful and healthy addition.
Make It Ahead
