Slow Cooked Shredded Beef Tacos

I recently tried a "trial" subscription for Make 5 Dinners in One Hour. I LOVE this menu-planning program...but that's for another post. Right now I just want to feature a recipe from my trial subscription that I absolutely love. I think these shredded beef tacos are better than any ground beef tacos I've ever had!

Slow Cooked Shredded Beef Tacos

Ingredients

  • 2 lb beef roast (or larger depending on your family size)
  • 1 Tbsp Chili Powder
  • 1 Tbsp Dried oregano
  • 1 tsp crushed garlic
  • 4 oz can diced green chilis (or use fresh/frozen, or use Rotel diced tomatoes w/ green chilis)
  • 10 oz can diced tomatos
  • Package of flour tortillas

(Toppings - sour cream, shredded cheese, guacamole. Serve with chips and salsa or rice and beans.)

To Make Ahead:

Place first 6 ingredients in a large zipper bag and refrigerate until you are ready to make.

Directions:

  1. Pour bag contents in slow cooker and cook on low for 8 - 10 hours.
  2. Shred meat with two forks
  3. Serve on flour tortillas with cheese, sour cream, & guacamole along with chips and salsa or rice and beans.
  4. You can make your own guacamole, but I've found the refrigerated varieties at the grocery store to be very good and much faster if you are in a hurry!
