I love that this uses items that I pretty much always have in the house. I added onion to the ground beef when I cooked it. I used mayonnaise and added a bit of sugar and vinegar to get that Miracle Whip tanginess. I also added some cumin for extra Mexican flavor. I recommend adding the cheese on top halway through baking bacause my cheese got very dried out. Thanx for posting this!
