For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with lentils or a plant-based ground meat alternative. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preferred level of spiciness. Consider adding a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce for an extra layer of umami depth. Toppings beyond cheddar cheese can include diced onions, kidney beans, or oyster crackers.
