For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a diced bell pepper (any color) to the skillet along with the onion. Spice it up (or down!) Use a mild, medium, or hot picante sauce to suit your personal preference. If you don't have tortillas on hand, serve this mixture over rice or quinoa for a satisfying bowl.
