Fully Loaded Taco Meat from Real Food Slow Cooker Recipes

By

Hi, guys!

I’m so excited to share a recipe from Real Food Slow Cooker Recipes, a new ebook by Arsy Vartanian from Rubies & Radishes. I’ve followed Arsy on social media (and podcasts) for year nows, and I love hearing what she’s up to, so I was really excited when she reached out about her new ebook. As you know, I love a good slow cooker recipe, especially ones that are easy, nutritious, and delicious, and she kindly offered to share her recipe for Fully Loaded Taco Meat, which, of course, I am super psyched to try. We love tacos in our house! 🙂 Without further ado, here’s Arsy!

Hi, Carrots ‘N’ Cake readers! I’m so excited that I get to introduce you to my new cookbook, Real Food Slow Cooker Recipes.

There’s nothing better than coming home at the end of the day to a delicious and nutritious meal that required minimal effort, and each one of the 70+ recipes in Real Food Slow Cooker Recipes hits that mark. I wrote this book for people who feel they’re too busy to stick to a healthy diet, or who believe that nourishing food can only come after you’ve spent hours in the kitchen. The truth is, with the right ingredients and a slow cooker, you and your family can enjoy healthy, flavorful meals.

Each recipe is strictly Paleo and Whole30-friendly! No grains, dairy, sugar, natural sweeteners, legumes or alcohol – just real food and flavor. And you can try ALL of them! Use the code CARROTS30 at checkout and get 30% off the ebook!

The recipe I’m sharing with you today is one that I make at least once a week: Fully Loaded Taco Meat! Never buy premade taco seasoning again – make your own and tailor it to your tastes. I hope you enjoy!

Fully Loaded Taco Meat from Real Food Slow Cooker Recipes

Author: Arsy Vartanian

Serves 6

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon coriander
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 2 lbs. ground beef
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste

Cooking Instructions

  1. In a small bowl combine all of the spices.
  2. Add the beef, tomato paste and spices to the slow cooker. Use a spoon to mix up the ingredients and break up the meat.
  3. Cook on low for 4 hours.
  4. Break up the meat some more.
  5. Use a slotted spoon to remove the meat from the slow cooker and serve.

Chef’s tip: You can reserve 2 teaspoons of the taco seasoning and add it in the last 30 minutes of cooking. This extra step isn’t necessary, but it will heighten the flavor of the meat!

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
