I just LOVE chilpotles in anything and came across this recipe. Of course I added more chilpotles than called for and some of the adobo sauce and a some cumin. Not an RR fan but these are fabulous! Caution to those not familiar with chilpotles, they add heat and no 2 peppers are the same size so I suggest you add one then taste it.

Absolutely delicious! I wanted to try something to shake things up a bit. My kids didn't like this, but my husband sure did! <br/>I did have to add a bit more chipotle. We love the stuff. I topped mine with some shredded cheese, tomatoes, sour cream and romaine. My husband just dumped some sour cream and salsa on his. The kids are it with crunchy taco shells and cheese.

I love tacos and these were very good! I did 3 gloves garlic, garlic salt, and cumin. Two big chipotle peppers. My husbband liked them. Topped with lettuce, tomatoe, and sour cream. My brother had given us some homemade salsa made with black chile peppers so we added that. But I ate one without so I could taste the meat without the salsa taking away from it. I also added one diced up potatoe, only because I thought it would be hot and would tone it down.
