Shredded Beef Tacos

1 (4 lb) lean roast
2 t black pepper
1 large onion, diced
1 (7 oz) can chopped green chilies
2 t chili powder
1 t cayenne pepper
1 T garlic powder
2 t ground cumin
1 cube beef bouillon

Trim the roast of any excess fat and cut into four pieces. Rub with black pepper and place into a slow cooker.  Add the onions, green chilies, chili powder, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, cumin, and beef bouillon.  Pour enough water to cover 1/3 of the roast.  Cover and cook on low for about 8 hours. Add water if needed to keep the roast from drying out. When meat is done, remove from slow cooker and shred the meat into bite sized pieces using two forks.  Return the meat to the slow cooker and allow to cook in leftover juices for about 20 minutes.

Homemade Taco Seasoning

1 TBSP chili powder
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp paprika
1 1/2 tsp cumin
 tsp sea salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp sugar
1 TBSP corn flour (you could probably use regular, but I've never tried it)
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder

Mix spices together in small bowl.  Add to cooked hamburger.  I use this entire recipe, but we like things a bit spicy.  I also omit the garlic and onion powder and use 1/2 onion and 2 cloves garlic because that makes it healthier.

1/4 C onion, chopped
1 pkg taco seasoning mix
2 C water
1 (15 oz) can kidney beans
1 (15 oz) can whole kernel corn
1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes
Corn chips

In large saucepan, brown ground beef with onion.  Drain. Stir in seasoning mix and water. Drain kidney beans and corn. Mix in tomatoes. Simmer 20 minutes.  To serve, place corn chips in individual bowls. Add soup.  Sprinkle or spoon on toppings, if desired.

Toppings: Grated cheese, sour cream, sliced avocado, chopped tomatoes, chopped green onion, cilantro

"We really love this recipe in our home, this is just a basic recipe. If I don't have the exact ingredients, I just improvise.  Maybe use tomato sauce or black beans, just whatever I have.  Ground turkey is really good in it, or use half beef and half turkey." Submitted by Vicky Koop
