Picadillo (No Raisins)
"Picadillo. We never liked the raisins in traditional picadillo because it made it too sweet. My friend grew up in Monterrey and her mother made it almost this way and I added a few other things."

This turned out very delicious! The extra ingredients gave an added dimension that you don't get with ordinary taco meat. This went well with both the soft-taco style and burrito style. It is very hearty and definity a great part of a Mexican meal. Thanks for the recipe! -

We live in a great neighborhood just outside of San Antonio. We are retired and entertain a lot in addition to having family & children around whenever possible. I grow my own vegetables and herbs. I like to go to the Hill Country for fresh peaches and love to can them for year round use.
