3. **Simmer** until flavors meld, then spoon over or mix in with your base (pasta, rice, etc.).
4. **Top with cheese** and bake (if desired) until bubbly and golden.
5. **Serve hot** and brace yourself for the compliments.

### Ideas for Customization:
– Add veggies like bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach for extra nutrition.
– Swap the meat for lentils or beans for a vegetarian version.
– Use different cheeses or spice blends to mix things up (think Tex-Mex, Italian, or Cajun).
– Make it a one-pan bake for easy cleanup.
