Picadillo with Rice and Black Beans image

I used to love eating Picadillo when I lived in Key West many years ago. Found this recipe in the paper so I can now enjoy this again. I don't eat beef so I use ground turkey breast instead. Easy quick little dinner.

This picadillo was a great way to use up leftover black beans. It was also a great way to get my kids to eat sweet potatoes.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my picadillo turned out really dry. I think I might have added too much rice.

This picadillo was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.

This picadillo was just okay. I found it to be a bit bland and the vegetables were a bit mushy.
