Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Here we have an adaptation of the traditional Picadillo minus the ground beef, plus some carrots for added nutrition, and volume. Recipes are meant as just a guide, with you having the final say on quantities depending on how much you like garlic, and other spices. You can eat this with quinoa, rice, tacos, or in any dish that you would use ground beef.
