DEB'S CALDILLO (MEXICAN GROUND BEEF STEW)



Deb's Caldillo (Mexican Ground Beef Stew) image

This is a tart and hearty stew with a southwestern flavor. I made it up after visiting a local Texas restaurant which declined to give me their recipe for the delicious stew I ate there. Although mine tastes similar to theirs, it is much more tart (which I like) and hot (which I love!) Check it out if you like something a bit different. You won't be disappointed.
