Slow Cooker Beef Tacos
We had Slow Cooker Beef Tacos for Taco Tuesday and you should too!
I have never really loved a lot of heat on my tacos, but I’m growing up and branching out! These beef tacos really hit the spot and did not need too much to go with them.
A little cilantro, sour cream, tomatoes, lettuce, or anything you love. They were absolutely great!
