Easy Mexican Shredded Beef

  1. Shred pot roast (at least 1/2 of a 3lb roast).
  2. Saute chopped 1/2 medium onion in olive oil and add 3 Tbsp minced garlic.
  3. Add the shredded meat to the onion/garlic and heat through.
  4. Add one packet of taco seasoning and 3/4 cup of water.
  5. Mix.
  6. Add one can of black beans, drained (15 oz.)
  7. Add one can of diced green chilies (4 oz.)
  8. Add one can of mushrooms (4 oz.).
  9. I use pieces and stems, because if I dont my kids see them out immediately and pick them out.
  10. Let this simmer for approximately 10 minutes.
  11. Then the possibilities are endless!
  12. Here is the list of extras that my family uses:
  13. Shredded cheese, usually sharp Sour Cream Guacamole / sliced avocado Cilantro Shredded or Romaine lettuce
  14. Weve made tostadas, hard/soft tacos, burritos and taco salad with the shredded beef as it is pretty versatile.
  15. Ive also just taken the shredded beef mixture, rolled it up in corn tortillas and fried them to make taquitos.
  16. Ive spent afternoons frying up taquitos and putting them in freezer bags.
  17. Homemade taquitos are incredible!
  18. We personally like to mix sour cream and green taco sauce together to dip them in....YUMMY!
