For an even deeper smoky flavor, consider using smoked turkey. Adjust the amount of habanero pepper and hot sauce to your desired level of spiciness. Remember, you can always add more, but you can't take it away! Serve with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped green onions, avocado, or a dollop of plain Greek yogurt. Pair with crusty bread or cornbread for a complete and satisfying meal. For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground turkey with plant-based ground and add an extra can of beans.
