Notes

For added flavor, consider incorporating herbs like parsley or basil into the mix. For a spicier version, add chopped jalapeños or crushed red pepper flakes. You can also experiment with different toppings, such as barbecue sauce or cheese, to make it even more delicious. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days or freeze for later.
