This was a pretty tasty twist on a picadillo. I served it over corn tortillas and used a lot of hot sauce. The apples added a really nice, mild sweetness, but I needed some spiciness to balance that out- just a personal preference. Thanks for sharing! -
This is a WONDERFUL FLAVORFUL HEALTHY picadillo! I doubled the recipe but otherwise followed it exactly. I LOVED the green olives (I used sliced). PERFECT for a cool fall night! Made for the Zaar tag game.
