Variations & Tips
For a vegetarian version, omit the ground beef and add more vegetables like zucchini or bell peppers. You can also substitute the cream of mushroom soup with a homemade version using vegetable broth and mushrooms. For a bit of spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a diced jalapeño. If you prefer a creamier texture, stir in a half cup of sour cream before serving. For a gluten-free option, ensure that the cream of mushroom soup is gluten-free, or make your own using gluten-free ingredients.
