Notes:
  1. Another recipe from one of Rhonda's friends: Suzanne Coffman from Brownwood Texas.
  2. I had never heard of ground round before and had to look it up. It is a term used for the leanest ground beef.
  3. Any kind of ground meat (ie pork, chicken, etc) or vegetarian option (ie meatless ground round) can be used in place of ground round. 
  4. I actually don't eat ground meat, so I have used a vegetarian substitute and I have used small chunks of chicken breast.
  5. Sharp cheese, while best, can be replaced with whatever kind of cheese you like/have around the house. 
  6. Both flour and corn tortillas can be used. 
  7. Suzanne noted to serve with Spanish rice or refried beans.
