Day 16- Beef caldereta



TODAY'S RECIPE: Caldereta

Blog Commentary: Another beef course. This one resembles Picadillo, especially the sauce. The main difference is the meat used. You can use different types of meat with this. As the recipe on the site says, goat meat or chicken can be use (instead of beef). If you're "beef"ed out, try using chicken. I've never tried goat with calderetta.
