My son's friends used to request this recipe when they came over...ten years later, they're still talking about it. The meat makes an excellent filling for tacos, burritos or enchiladas and freezes well.-Connie Dicavoli, Shawnee, Kansas

This recipe was a complete disaster. The meat was dry and the sauce was watery.
