- Ensure you fully drain and rinse the canned tomatoes to avoid excess liquid making the dish too watery.
- For added texture, lightly sauté the cauliflower rice in the bacon fat after cooking the bacon to enhance its flavor.
- Allow the dish to cook low and slow; patience will ensure the beef becomes tender and flavorful.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley before serving to add a burst of color and freshness.
