Variations & Tips
For a leaner option, use ground turkey instead of beef and pork. Add more vegetables by mixing grated carrots or chopped mushrooms into the filling. For a spicy twist, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some finely chopped jalapeño to the meat mixture. If you have picky eaters, try making a small batch with just rice and vegetables as a filling. For a gluten-free version, ensure your beef broth and tomato sauce are gluten-free, and serve with gluten-free sides.
