Meaty Mexican Sandwiches
Mexican-inspired sandwiches filled with spiced meat, beans, cheese, and salsa. Packed with flavor and heat—great with a cold drink.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 pound ground pork 1/2 pound ground beef 1 small onion, chopped 1 garlic clove, minced 3/4 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin 1 pinch ground cloves
- 1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted 6 hard rolls, split
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cups shredded lettuce
Directions:
- In a skillet, cook pork, beef, onion and garlic until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are tender; drain. Stir in the ketchup, raisins, vinegar and seasonings. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in almonds. Hollow out the top and bottom of each roll, leaving a 1/2-in. shell. (Discard removed bread or save for another use.) Fill each roll with about 1/2 cup meat mixture. Top with cheese and lettuce; replace top of roll.
