This torta sandwich is a great way to use up leftover meat. I had some leftover carnitas and this was the perfect way to use it up.

The torta sandwich was good, but I thought it was a little bland. I think next time I'll add some more spices to the meat.

This torta sandwich was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think next time I'll use less oil when cooking the meat.

The torta sandwich was good, but I thought it was a little dry. I think next time I'll add some avocado or guacamole to make it more moist.

This torta sandwich was a little too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.
