TEX-MEX BEEF POT ROAST (CROCK POT)
This was a wonderful creation I made today. I could not find a Mexican style pot roast that included the ingredients I had on hand, so I threw together what I hoped were spices that blended well. Boy, did they ever! I served this with vegetarian refried beans sprinkled with a shredded Mexican 4-cheese blend. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

- Brown the beef before cooking: Browning the beef adds flavor and color to the dish. You can do this in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Use a variety of spices: The spices in this recipe give it a delicious Tex-Mex flavor. You can adjust the amount of each spice to suit your taste.
- Cook the beef on low for 6-8 hours: This will give the beef time to become tender and fall apart.
- Shred the beef before serving: Once the beef is cooked, shred it with two forks. This will make it easier to eat in the wraps.
- Serve the beef wraps with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
Conclusion:
These Tex-Mex beef wraps are a delicious and easy meal that can be made in the crock pot. They are perfect for a busy weeknight dinner or a casual get-together. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that your family and friends will love.
