A great use for left overs! Arrachera beef is a marinated meat used in Mexico for tacos. Left-over roast beef, or even ground beef is a good substitute, however I suggest adding some taco seasoning to the meat.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The only change I make is to add a bit more cheese to the cornbread topping.
