Made completely in the skillet, this savory, moist mix of ground beef, lime, salsa, peppers and cheese offers creamy comfort. Chipotle pepper adds just the right hint of heat. —Aysha Schurman, Ammon, Idaho
Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef (95% lean)
1/3 cup chopped green onions
1/3 cup chopped green pepper

2 tablespoons finely chopped pickled pepper rings
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon ground chipotle pepper
3/4 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese, divided
Directions:
