    OK! Just had to come back to let you know, I just made this, and it was so bomb!! Only had to make one improvise because it was 11:30 at night when I made this! So I didn't have any kind of chilies on hand, so I just used some chili powder in the hamburger. Other than that made everything else according to your directions and it was fab!!

    GURL! Picadillo has always been one of my favorite dishes and my no-cookin-ass has always been skittish of trying to make it, but your tutorial was so easy to understand. My kiddo and I are eating it as I type it. Incredible! I feel like a chef! Lol only thing I did differently was no peppers. I only used the tomatoes since my toddler and I can’t eat spicy. Can you recommend a substitution for the peppers? Thx in advance

    • @melslifestyle
      @melslifestyle  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Aw I’m so glad you enjoyed it thank you so much for commenting!
      I would suggest just leaving it with tomato if you would prefer no spice :) the tomato itself with the seasonings will give it all the flavor it needs, hope this helps! :)
