- To add a bit more spice, consider including some sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
- Dry the lettuce leaves thoroughly after washing to keep them crisp and prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Serve immediately after cooking to enjoy the contrast between the hot beef filling and the cool, crisp lettuce.
