My thoughts:
Old El Paso challenged me to come upwards up amongst a novel together with exciting way to piece of occupation their classic refried beans. I didn't desire to accept the tardily way out together with brand dip or tacos together with then I made ane of my favorite Mexican sandwiches, torta ahogada. The advert literally way "drowned sandwich" together with it is adpt. You basically accept a meat-filled sandwich together with drench it amongst sauce. Then swallow it amongst your hands. It isn't pretty merely it is delish.

Traditionally the sandwich is served amongst your selection of salsa dulce or salsa enchilosa. Salsa dulce actually isn't sweetness merely it is tempered past times love apple tree sauce spell salsa enchilosa is direct chile. I went the dulce road merely residuum assured, the sauce is notwithstanding pretty hot merely the pepitas together with love apple tree sauce both thicken it together with proceed it from scorching your mouth.  I really can't articulate how tasty this sandwich this is. The pork is melt-in-your oral cavity tender amongst slight crispy bits reinstatement of existent carnitas. The refried beans human activeness every bit form of a barrier to proceed the sauce from turning the sandwich into full mush although the long it takes y'all to swallow the sandwich, the softer together with messier it gets. The sandwich is a snap to brand every bit well. The pork cooks all twenty-four hr menstruum inwards the dull cooker, the sauce takes close 20 seconds to brand inwards the blender together with the broiling/reheating the beans is uncomplicated together with tin endure done simutaiously. Perfect for a exceptional weeknight dinner.
