What's for dinner?

Tonight for dinner I'm making Carne Guisada.  Carne Guisada means "meat in gravy."  Whenever we go out for Mexican, this is what Marty orders.  I found the recipe on allrecipes.com - but it says it's a Puerto Rican dish. Not sure if that's just this particular recipe or what.  I'll have to do a little research on where Carne Guisada originated.  Wherever it did - this is dinner tonight.  Also gonna throw in some homemade torts and canned refried beans topped w/ monteray jack cheese.  (I can make them homemade but didn't think to soak the beans overnight)

Here's the recipe for those who are interested:
