Notes
SERVING:
Traditionally picadillo is often used to fill chiles rellenos, sopes, enchiladas, tacos, or tostadas. Other applications are: a topping for chips or crackers, and as a filling for a rustic sandwich. Mix it with some noodles and add some tomato sauce for a great casserole, or try it as a filling for stuffed, baked tomatoes or onions.
