I made this using an Instant Pot, but I'm sure it could be adapted for a slow cooker. Just sear the the meat and saute the onion mixture, then throw it all in the slow cooker on low.
Easy Beef Tacos (6pts per serving but can very depending how much meat you use)
Ingredients
1T butter
1 small onion
minced garlic (measure with your heart)
4oz can of green chilis
1T ground cumin
2T garlic powder
2t smoked paprika
2t chili powder
1t sea salt
1t onion powder
1/2t black pepper
1/2t cayenne pepper
3/4c to 1c reduced sodium beef stock (I use Better Than Bullion Organic Reduced Sodium.)
1 can low fat, refried black beans
1 can whole kernel corn
low carb flour tortilla wraps
Optional (not included in the point count)
Shredded cheddar cheese ( 5pts per 1/4c of regular, 1pt per 1/4c of fat free)
Lime Juice (0pts per 1t)
Herdez Taqueria Street Sauce- Roja (0pts per 1T)
Sour Cream- (1pt per 2T Fat Free, 2pts per 2T Reduced-fat, 3pts per 2T full fat)
-Turn Instant Pot to sauté. Sear the beef, remove from pot, and set aside.
- Add butter, onions, and garlic to pot and cook until aromatic and/or slightly sweating.
-Add beef stock to deglaze pot.
-Now about half to 3/4 the amount of seasoning you made and chilis. Mix well.
-Add beef back to pot and mix to cover beef in "sauce".
-Cook the beef using the pressure option for 10 mins. Let pressure naturally release for an additional 10 mins, then "quick" release.
-While all that is cooking, get two small pots. Cook the corn on in one. In the other, combine the refried beans and some of the seasoning mixture (to taste). I also added a little lime juice to mine
When it's all done, make yourself some yummy tacos and call it a day!
