Crock Pot Chipotle Beef Barbacoa
I don't use my crock pot a lot (personal preference) but for a roasting meat it's a good choice. Even the toughest meats will be tender and juicy after the hours spent cooking. This recipe has just a little kick that says "Hello." in a soft voice. If you want it louder or to give a shout add more chipotles. I like it nice and easy so I can taste all of the flavors I've stuffed into my tortilla shell.
Whether you like crispy or soft, flour or corn, any tortilla shell will work well with this meal. I'll tell you below which toppings I used but feel free to change the up to suit your taste!
Next time I make this beef recipe I will double or triple it and have extra for the freezer! I could also use a pork roast and it would be awesome as well.

Unstuffed Pepper Soup
If you saw my Unstuffed Green Peppers recipe you learned that I prefer my green peppers chopped up rather than used as cups. One day here recently I thought that I would try it with a bit more liquid and made it in a soup. It's a nice change up from the casserole style meal.
The canned tomatoes and sauce can be salty it was good to use my homemade broth where I can control the salt. You can use water (which I have done in a pinch and it is still delicious) or use a lower sodium broth.
After eating it as a meal and making lunch portions with what was left there weren't any for the freezer. Next time I will double the recipe and put some away for quick meals. Another afterthought I had was to use the crock pot next time. I'll work on that and update this when I do!
Unstuffed Pepper Soup
1-1/2 pounds ground beef
2/3 chopped green peppers
2/3 cup chopped onion
28 ounce can diced tomatoes
8 ounce can tomato sauce
1-1/2 Tablespoons Worcestershire
1-2 cups beef broth (or water)
1/2 cup instant brown rice (I used Uncle Ben's)
