Notes

You can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream for a healthier option. Feel free to add your favorite toppings such as jalapeños or green onions. Store in an airtight container in the fridge; for best results, avoid mixing wet ingredients until just before serving to keep lettuce crisp. Ground beef can be replaced with lean ground turkey or seasoned tofu for a vegetarian version.
