For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with crumbled tofu or finely diced mushrooms. Add a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds or chopped peanuts for extra texture and flavor. Adjust the amount of chile pepper sauce to your desired level of spice. The beef mixture can be prepared ahead of time and reheated when ready to serve.
