- Rinse the white rice before cooking to remove excess starch and prevent it from getting too sticky.
- If you prefer a bit more heat, consider adding a diced jalapeno or a pinch of cayenne pepper with the spices.
- For a vegetarian version, simply omit the ground beef and add extra black beans or your favorite veggies like bell peppers or zucchini.
- Use freshly grated cheddar cheese for the best melting consistency and flavor.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and make for a great next-day lunch.
