The basic recipe is easy to follow, and from there your imagination may run wild. Colorful and flavorful, fresh herbs are a welcome addition to any meal. Pablano chilies or chilli flakes may be used for spiciness. Adding cheese to your meal and cooking it until it melts and becomes brown can take it from ordinary to extraordinary. Side salads made of fresh greens are always welcome to help lighten things up.
