Crock on with your Good self--Crock Pot Beef Fajitas

I love cooking in a crock pot...basically we ran holiday errands yesterday while dinner cooked itself.  You could do this on a week night if you either prepped the night before or got up 10 minutes earlier in the morning.  The flavor slow cooks in all day and the beef is fall apart tender when it is ready.

Katie W...this one is for you.

1 1/2 lbs. flank steak cut into 4 pieces
1 medium onion chopped
1 green pepper sliced
1 red pepper sliced
1 clove garlic
1 Tbs cilantro
1 Tsp chili powder
1 Tsp cumin
1 Tbs lime juice
1 10oz can dice tomatoes with green chilis (I used Rotel mild, use regular Rotel for more heat and spice)

Tortillas
Cheddar cheese, sour cream, salsa

Place steak in a slow cooker; top with onions and remaining ingredients.
Cover and cook on high for 5 hours.
Remove meat and shred.  Serve in tortillas with toppings. 

To make Better add one element of organic steak, organic, garden grown or farmer's market onions and pepper or whole grain tortillas.  To make Best add multiple elements of  organic steak, organic, garden grown or farmer's market onions and pepper or whole grain tortillas.

Now...if you happen to have any left overs...you can turn this into the Best Beef Tortilla Soup.

Take the steak and cut into small pieces and put into a stock pot.
Dump the remaining left overs from the crock pot into the stock pot.
Add one carton of beef stock.
Bring to a boil and then turn down heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
Serve with crushed tortilla chips.

Enjoy the Best food!
