Sloppy Joes (Mexican Style) image

This is a favorite at my house. Hispanic people call it "Picadillo". Usually eaten with flour tortillas, I have added the cheese sauce and sour cream. Hope you enjoy!

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, sliced and chopped (seeds and all)
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce, plus
1 cup water
garlic powder (1/2 tspn or more)

sour cream

Steps:

Brown ground beef with chopped onion, chopped Jalapenos and salt.
Drain or spoon off excess fat after browning.
Add tomato sauce, water and garlic powder to meat mixture.
Simmer for 10-15 mins to thicken to desired consistency for serving.
Heat tortillas keeping them soft and pliable.
I usually heat them on a gas burner set to low, turning them quite often.
Brown crusty spots are quite welcome!
Swipe garlic butter across center of warmed tortilla.
Add single portion of meat mixture and fold in half like a taco.
Add warm cheese sauce over meat and a couple of small dallops of sour cream.
Indulge yourself!
