Crock Pot Tacos

This recipe came from Picky Palate's blog I adapted it a little. It's super easy, tastes great and makes lots.

From Mommy I'm Hungry


2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 medium onions, finely chopped
2 serrano chili peppers, finely chopped (seeds and membranes removed for less heat)
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 lbs lean ground beef (or ground Turkey)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried Parsley
1 Cup Salsa

1. Place oil into a large rimmed skillet over medium heat. Saute onion, peppers and garlic for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add in beef, salt, pepper and Lawry’s. Cook until browned. Stir in Salsa then transfer to crockpot on low heat. Let cook on low for 2-3 hours or until ready to serve. Right before serving, stir in fresh chopped cilantro if desired. (I cook the meat up, then keep it on low in the crock-pot all day)

Serve with hard or soft taco shells and garnishes, such as shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced olives, sour cream, guacamole and shredded cheese.

  2. This is a great recipe and the crock pot makes dinner available "whenever". When I have leftover taco meat, I often add a little Velveeta and salsa to the taco meat and let it all get hot and melty then serve it over tortilla chips. Not too healthy, but great non the less.
