I'm a vegan, so I substituted the ground beef for tofu. It turned out great! I also added some extra vegetables to make it even healthier.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better. I also think it would be better with some fresh vegetables added in.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.
