Different Types and Advice
For a healthier option, you can use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef. If your children are selective with food, try including their preferred vegetables or hiding some finely chopped spinach or zucchini. For people who enjoy some heat in their food, adding a bit of red pepper flakes or chopped jalapeño can give it a nice spicy flavor. You can also replace the cheddar cheese with another favorite cheese like mozzarella or pepper jack to give it a different taste.
