For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with crumbled tempeh or a can of seasoned lentils. Spice it up by adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the ground beef while browning. Make it a complete meal by adding grilled chicken or shrimp. For a lighter option, use a low-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt. Prepare the beef and beans ahead of time for an even quicker weeknight meal. Store separately in the refrigerator.
