One of the best things about meal planning is that I'm finally putting my Pinterest boards to use! I have to repost this recipe for fear that the link might break someday. These soft tacos were SO delicious, I can't risk losing track of the details.
2 lbs flank steak
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
for spice rub...
1 Tbsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
for serving...
corn tortillas
avocado slices
lettuce, chopped
shredded cheese
cilantro
your favorite salsa
limes
Place steak at the bottom of a slow cooker. Sprinkle with each of the seasonings for the rub. Cover steak with the chopped onions, bell pepper and jalapeno pepper. Turn heat on LOW and cook for 8 hours.
After 8 hours, shred the meat with a fork. You can either stick the shredded meat back in the pot for another hour to marinate or serve as is.
To serve, heat corn tortillas in a skillet on the stove. Spoon some carnitas on a tortilla, then top with salsa, avocado, cheese, lettuce, cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
Enjoy with a margarita for best results.

Katie! So, I know you probably won't remember me, but I used to work at your church a long time ago (I'm friends with your friends!).
Anyway, I came across your blog via Pinterest (the Jedi party) and was reading and scrolling and thinking, "these kids look familiar. This name is familiar. Is it? It IS!".
Anyway, I just thought I'd give you a little blog love from another Phoenician (who also spent the same week you did in San Diego, lol!). We homeschool as well, so its refreshing to find your blog for another perspective!
Blessings to you!
