Southwestern Beef Wraps

* I made this last night and it was SO yummy! We omitted the onions and it still tasted great

Southwestern Beef Wraps by Our Best Bites
1 onion, chopped
2 1/2-ish lb. beef roast, trimmed of fat but left whole
1 heaping tsp. chili powder
1 heaping tsp. garlic powder
1 heaping tsp. cumin
1 heaping tsp. Kosher salt
2 bell peppers (you can use 2 green bell peppers or mix it up a little with red, yellow, or orange; just make sure one is green), chopped
1 14 1/2 oz. can Mexican-style diced tomatoes OR 1 can of Rotel tomatoes (regular or mild, depending on your preference)

Small flour tortillas (click here to make your own!)

Desired toppings: salsa or pico de gallo, guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, etc.

Place chopped onion in the bottom of the slow cooker

Combine seasonings in a small bowl and then rub seasoning mixture all over the roast

Place roast over onions, top with chopped peppers,

and then pour the canned tomatoes on top of everything.

Cook on high for 5-6 hours or low for 8-9 hours OR (and this is Kate's Magical Meat Method), start this in the morning, cook it on high until things start to boil and then cook on low until dinnertime and the meat shreds easily with two forks.

Shred meat and then serve with desired toppings!

FREEZER MEAL INSTRUCTIONS: Place tomatoes in the bottom of a freezer safe container. Place green peppers on top of tomatoes, then the seasoned roast, then the onions. When ready to cook, invert the container so the tomatoes are on top and cook 1-2 hours longer than the original recipe states.

May's Theme: SALADS and FREEZER MEALS

Hey Everyone,

This month we will be doing two different themes, Salads and Freezer Meals. With summer coming up, and everyone having busy schedules, how wonderful would it be to pull out a meal from your freezer and have dinner ready. If you do freezer meals, please include all informations such as packing, etc.

Thanks!
