For a richer flavor, use a combination of ground beef and ground Italian sausage. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Stir in a handful of shredded cheddar cheese or mozzarella cheese just before serving for a cheesy twist. Fresh herbs such as basil or oregano can add depth of flavor. Consider adding other vegetables such as bell peppers, celery or carrots for increased nutrients and variety.
