I found the recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra chili powder and cumin to give it more flavor.

The meat mix was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding some sour cream.

I used ground turkey instead of beef, and it turned out great! The meat was still moist and flavorful.
