About

Mexican-influenced corn tortillas, stacked and filled with delicately spiced ground turkey and black beans, sprinkled with cheese, and soused with a macho guajillo chile sauce: This bellows out its layered flavors and textures in each mouthful. A glass of Spanish Rioja wine is perfect with this meal, as is a side of Sautéed Spinach with Yogurt.
