Notes
Swap black beans for pinto beans or omit them for an even lower-carb option.
Add shredded lettuce or sautéed peppers for more volume and nutrients.
Great for meal prep — store each component separately in containers for up to 3 days.
For extra spice, drizzle with sugar-free hot sauce or add jalapeño slices.
