This is the easiest recipe ever and really quite versatile. Many of my simple recipes require a crock pot so make the investment now and you'll feel like you hired a personal chef. I love opening up my front door to the smell of a fresh cooked meal at the end of the day. This one takes less than 5 minutes before you head out in the morning and then a moment or two of shredding before serving.
My kids are picky eaters and they love this one. My husband is fine with left-overs but for those who aren't so lucky, the multiple uses for this meat will please even the biggest leftover snob!
Here's the recipe:
1 lb. stew beef (also fine with any kind of beef but the stew beef shreds easier)
1 can cream of celery (or really cream of anything!)
1 can crushed green chilis
(you can double or triple the recipe as long as it doesn't fill the crock pot. optimum is between 50-75% full)
Crock pot on high 6 - 8 hours (or more - just add some water to compensate for extra time). Shred apart with a couple forks.
TIP: you can even put the meat in the crock pot when it's frozen. Crock pots are just so darned accommodating to your circumstances!
Great on rice or noodles. I strongly suggest the new 90 minute rice from Uncle Bens. It's done in a flash and is perfectly sized for one dinner.
Also good on taco salad or in tacos. Make a double batch and freeze the rest for next time. Thaws perfectly.
