For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, a drizzle of your favorite hot sauce, or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. You can easily customize these tacos with your favorite toppings, such as avocado, black olives, or pickled jalapeños. For a spicier kick, use hot taco seasoning or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the ground beef. Ground turkey or chicken can be substituted for ground beef for a leaner option. Make sure the lettuce leaves are completely dry before filling them to prevent the tacos from becoming soggy.
