Directions
Swap ground beef for kidney beans, skipping Step 1 unless you prefer warm beans. If so, lightly heat kidney beans on the stove or microwave.
Swap cheese for bacon and dressing for dairy-free version.
- Spray a pan with an oil spray. Add in beef & stir fry until no longer pink, ~7 minutes.
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl.
- Top with salt & dressing.
- Note: I’m using Sriracha ranch dressing here, but you can use Ranch, 1000 Island, or whatever else you like.
- No beef? Use ground turkey or the vegetarian option.
