I love my slow cooker. As a working man with a working wife, it is so nice to come home to a meal that is already done and doesn’t need much work. Unfortunately, many of the meals seem the same. Tender meat (chicken, beef, pork) in some kind of sauce and generally with some vegetables that have been cooked soft. Lots of good dishes with good flavors, but sometimes you want something that just tastes a little fresh.
Green Chile Beef Tacos
This takes the best of both worlds and crosses the divide.
A hunk of beef, some green salsa and typical taco ingredients.
Beef, broth and salsa in the slow cooker.
Yes, I liberally use jalapeños!

Rantings of an Amateur Chef 
You might have had a better experience, whenever I use the slow cooker things turn “mushy” and kinda lose their texture quick! 😦 – Love what you made though, thanks for sharing.
