When the words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise.

Grandma Becky's "Tijuana" Torte


There is nothing about this recipe that seems like it would come from Tijuana, but that is its name.  This makes a great meal where everyone can choose what they want to include.   I like to make a salad with everything!

3 quart Slow-Cooker 5-6 quart Slow Cooker
1/2 lb 1 lb Ground Hamburger Meat or Mild Italian Sausage
3-6 oz cans 6-6 oz cans Tomato Paste
2 1/2 cups 5 cups Water
2 Tbsp 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
1 tsp 2 tsp Ground Oregano (or use twice as much in leaves)
1 tsp 2 tsp Chili Powder
1 tsp 2 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp 2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder

Brown meat.  Combine all ingredients in slow-cooker and heat on high until warm.  If the meal is more than two hours away, use a low setting.

Serve with the items below (or create your own list of toppings:)

  • Corn Chips
  • Lettuce
  • Sour Cream
  • Cheddar Cheese
  • Avocado Dip or Avocado chunks
  • Onion, chopped
  • Tomato
  • Sliced Almonds, plain or toasted
  • Black Olives
  • Snow Peas, cut in bite size pieces
  • Celery, chopped or sliced small
