Crock Pot Tacos or Crockos



Ewwwwww! That was your first response right? What on earth is this nonsense? Well fortunately for you, I don't intend the entire taco to enter the crock pot, I just wanted to trick you. I made this meal unintentionally and it was so easy and yummy I had to share. And because it started out as the base for something else, it is slightly healthier than the average taco, due to extra veggies you wouldn't have otherwise put in your sodium laden meal. Maybe slightly healthier isn't the term to use...less unhealthy! Yes, that fits nicely.

TO MAKE THIS RECIPE YOU WILL NEED:

1/2 lb Ground Beef
1 can Beans (your choice)
1 can Mixed Veggies
1 can Carrots

1 or 2 boxes of taco shells or some Tacones
2 Fresh Tomatoes
1 bag Shredded Cheese
1 container Sour Cream
Your favorite hot sauce

See how I separated the ingredients with an abrupt space? That's because you don't need to deal with the bottom five for another few hours. Now about those first four...

When you wake up in the morning, toss the ground beef, beans, veggies and carrots into a crockpot with some spices or whatever. You wont need water if you dont drain the cans. Mash it all up, set it on low and do whatever it is that you do.

When it's time for dinner, turn off the crock pot, dice up your tomatoes and get your ingredients out. Scoop some of each into a taco shell and then eat it.
