For a richer flavor, consider using a higher fat content ground beef. Adjust the amount of chili powder and cayenne pepper to your preferred spice level. The simmering time can be adjusted slightly to achieve your desired chili consistency. For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with plant-based ground meat. Topping variations: Consider adding sour cream or hot sauce for an extra layer of flavor.
