Slow Cooker Pepper Steak Tacos
Who doesn’t like tacos? Good, I am glad we all love them!
I could probably have tacos every single day. There’s so many varieties, so many things I can put on them, so many side dishes that go perfectly (like cilantro lime rice!). Oh tacos, how are you so great? One of my favorite recipes is Crockpot Chicken Tacos so I was interested in trying other Crockpot taco recipes because let’s be honest, I’m in love with my crockpot (or slow cooker if you must call it that too).
Slow Cooked Pepper Steak Tacos were born! I was especially happy with these tacos because I got to use garden grown green peppers, onions (are you proud of me?), stewed tomatoes that I made from our tomatoes and then our tomato salsa on top! These tacos were so fresh!
We were both in love with these tacos when we had them for dinner and since it’s 2 pounds of beef, it’s enough for leftovers – so 2 taco nights in a row? Yes please!
This pepper steak is so great smelling! Just thinking about the smell makes my belly grown with hunger and love.
I dare you to not just take one piece and eat it right away.
Throw some pepper steak on a tortilla, then add some salsa on top if you’d like. I added my Garden Tomato Salsa!
Oh, can you wait to eat these? I cannot!
I highly suggest taking some of the juices from the crockpot and pouring it on top. This just makes it MORE PERFECT!
Happy Taco Dinner Time!

what would happen if you dont brown the meat.. i’m all for the quickest way out the door before work in the morning, and less dishes when it comes to the to the crock
Hey Erica, I would brown to be safe it’s cooked. Maybe it’s about browning the meat the night prior and keeping in the fridge until you leave in the morning?
Your tacos look perfect! Love them.
Thanks Nik!
I LOVE tacos of all kinds so these automatically look delicious to me! I really like your dancing taco up there, too! Ha ha. My husband does a similar dance whenever we have tacos for dinner 😉
Thanks Amy! Who doesn’t love a dancing taco, right? I’d like to see some video of your husband’s taco dance!
Oh yum! We have a Mexican restaurant we just love. This looks like something they would serve!

Yet again, I feel like I am really missing out by not having a crockpot. I have to get on that!

I love the way you cook. I don’t eat much beef but I think I could pull this off with chicken, too. What do you think. Always a good idea to add peppers..especially now, since I have load of it. I can smell this, delicious! Thanks for sharing all your ideas!
Hi Hani! Chicken would absolutely work, have a great taco night! The smell is amazing! 🙂

Tex Mex is one of our favorites for dinner, if you have any other great Tex Mex recipes, feel free to share them! Have a great weekend!
All I want now are those tacos and I know how fresh the ingredients are and how fantastic it would taste.
