Skillets are my jam! Everyone knows this, but I tend to rely on potatoes too much. I wanted to switch things up a bit and make a low carb version of one of my favorite meals. This could be eaten at dinner or if you want it for breakfast, put an egg on it! You can also switch things up by using your favorite toppings. Cilantro, jalapenos, lime, green onion, salsa, avocado, the options are endless.
Another great way to customize this dish is to change up the ground meat that you use. I love chorizo and it packs a nice kick of flavor that would go perfectly with this dish. You could also use ground turkey, chicken or pork. One pot meals usually happen when I clean out the fridge, so use what you have in the fridge and make it your own!
