    I've made this recipe many times, but never reviewed it. One of my husband's favorites and yes, it is good over rice, but he loves to eat it on bread; like an open faced sandwich. I usually serve half and freeze the other half for another meal....love that!!

    Cuban Style Picadillo,This dish is best served over white rice with sweet plantains on the side (use the frozen package of sweet plantains) Also great as left-overs! My house always smells so good when i make this…makes mouths water as you inhale it! Note: when I make this I pour about 5 tablespoons of Kirby mojo criollo in the hamburger meat, it just adds a tiny bit more flavor,I’ve made this recipe many times, but never reviewed it. One of my husband’s favorites and yes, it is good over rice, but he loves to eat it on bread; like an open faced sandwich. I usually serve half and freeze the other half for another meal….love that!!,I made fried sweet potatoes as a side dish and added carrot, celery and a some garbanzo beans to this with a pinch of cinnamon and a couple cloves. Was really a great hit !!!

    Wait About 10 Minutes Before Rice Is Ready to Make the Frozen Sweet Plantains. I Cook Them Long Enough So They Are Fairly Dark, Then Place Them on Paper Towels to Drain the Canola Oil. Serve Picadillo Over White Rice and Sweet Plantains on the Side.
