Preparation alternatives
If ground beef isn’t available, go for ground pork or pork sausage. Choosing grass-fed meats will help you get more omega-3 fatty acids. To lower the carb content of this recipe, reduce the tomatoes. Instead of canned tomatoes with chilies, you can crush fresh tomatoes and add a tablespoon of chili powder. Adjust to your taste.
