CUBAN TORTAS

Cuban Tortas image

This is my variation of traditional Cuban Tortas, which I serve "mashed," along with Mojo Sauce. Either serve them for lunch or dinner, or cut into quarters as appetizers. Use Cuban bread, if you want to make it from scratch, but I like these made with regular hamburger buns.

TIJUANA TORTA

Tijuana Torta image

A Mexican-style torta is just like a burrito, except the "wrapper" is a hollowed-out roll instead of a tortilla Totally vegetarian. Here it's filled with mashed spiced black beans, a quick guacamole and melted Monterey Jack on the bean side of the sandwich. Serve with grilled corn on the cob or Spanish rice.
