Meat Sauce: brown together
1 lb. hamburger
1 chopped onion
1 chopped green pepper
2 cloves garlic
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
1 can water
1 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. oregano
1 Tbsp. vinegar
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
Let simmer 20-30 minutes
Layering Ingredients:
tortilla chips
meat sauce
grated cheese
chopped lettuce
tomatoes
salsa
sliced olives
sour cream
ranch
This is one of my favorite dishes. In the meat sauce I also like to double the chili powder, vinegar and brown sugar for a stronger flavor with more kick.

Carne Encebollada - Puerto Rican Beef & Onions
2 pounds steak, thinly sliced
1/2 c. olive oil
2 Tbsp. minced garlic
dash dried oregano leaves
2 large onions sliced in rings
1/2 c. distilled white vinegar
1 tsp. salt
Dump all ingredients into Ziploc bag.
Refrigerate 4 hours.
Boil/simmer on low for 40 minutes (we cook it on med/high for a shorter amount of time), until all the liquid is gone and the beef is done to your liking (I like mine well done).
We make several of these at a time and freeze all but one bag for future use. We generally serve this with a potato or noodle and a vegetable. It is my favorite way to have steak.

Swiss Steak
This is great to have for dinner on a cold day. I use my crock pot to simmer everything to perfection. I know it sounds not too appetizing from the ingredients, but trust me this is good stuff. Something about the meat simmering all day in the tomato sauce with the bell pepper, prefect combination. Here's what you'll need...
round steak (or some other cheap cut of beef), I got a 6 pack stuff shrinks when it cooks up!1 green bell pepper
4 cans of tomato sauce
garlic salt
6 medium potatoes
(this will feed 4 adults)
Get your meat out and tenderize it. I just gently slice it diagonal both ways on each side.
Pour all cans of tomato sauce into crock pot. Add the meat, sprinkle with garlic salt to your liking (I use about 4 or 5 shakes). Top off with sliced bell pepper. Put the lid on and cook for at least 6-8 hours (or on low all day). I let it cook up for a few hours then I stir it up a bit.
About an hour before you are ready to serve start your mashed potato's. I like to add milk and butter to mine till it is nice and fluffy.
I serve the meat and sauce over the potatoes.
