This beefy, sweet and spicy tacos is the perfect dinner with lots of juicy leftovers. The best part is your slow cooker (home cooks personal chef) cooks the meal for you while you are at work. When you return home after a long day a hot melt in your mouth hearty meal is all ready for you!
I love this recipe because it reminds me of the beginning years me and Tom started living together! I obviously cooked allot but he wanted a day he could do dinner. So we made Thursdays his night to get dinner. He would proudly come through the door with a big bag of barbacoa from Chipotle. The night officially became Chipotle Thursdays because it was the same dinner. I loved those times and always looked forward to Toms face of excitement and proudness that he got dinner.
So since he is busy now and working typical fun NYC hours, I figured out how to do this at home. When we eat this we always smile over those days and how fun it was.
Slow Cooker Tip:
- Prepare everything in the slow cooker the night before.
- When you wake up take out of the refrigerator and turn on before leave for work ( I put a sticky note by my keys so I don’t forget to turn the slow cooker on)
- Come home after along day to a hot meal waiting for you thanks to your personal chef, the slow cooker!
