Taco Fridays

Let's be honest...I don't do Taco Fridays. I have a cousin that does, it's his tradition with his kids. I do pizza or breakfast-for-dinner on Fridays. Though tonight I think we're having left-overs because I'm craving last night's clam chowder!

But...

Taco Fridays would be a great tradition for you to start, k?

Here's a great recipe for you to use in your upcoming Taco Friday meals...it's a slow cooker recipe...see, even better.

Friday Tacos

2 tbsp. olive oil
2 medium onions, finely chopped
2 anaheim peppers, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 lbs. lean ground beef
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 cup salsa, whatever type you prefer
Garnish with cilantro, chopped lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese.

Place oil in skillet over medium heat. Saute onion, peppers, and garlic for 5 minutes. Add in beef, salt and pepper. Cook until browned. Stir in salsa and transfer to slow cooker on low heat. Cook on low for 2-3 hours or until everyone is home and ready to start Taco Fridays. Serve with toppings on either a hard taco shell or wrapped in a soft flour tortilla.
