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!

Taco night, every night. Sign.Me.Up These look ridiculously delicious.
Oh my! Slow cooked and steak? Sounds delicious! I’m loving the idea of slow cooking since it’s like 80 degrees in my house, even at night! Everything looks yummy here Pamela and happy Friday!
Thanks Anne! Happy Friday and have a great weekend!
I don’t like tacos. Ha, just kidding, I’m obsessed with them. I especially like that little dancing taco you’ve got up there…too cute. These steak tacos look pretty amazing! If I had a slow cooker I would be all over them. I really must enter the 21st century and purchase one…
You scared my taco loving heart at first Laura! I gasped! Thank goodness that was a fake out! I hope you can break these tacos into your life soon!
you are so so so tempting us to have those tacos now,delicious recipe and likely we can have it every single day with a smile,thanks for sharing 🙂
Tacos everyday would be a dream come true! 🙂
I love tacos too and want to do the taco dance! 🙂 These look so good and I love that they are slow cooked. That means amazing flavor.
*Does the taco dance with you*. The flavor is unbelievable!
These tacos look perfect, it is exactly what I wanted for dinner on Thursday night!! Oh well, maybe next Thursday night! Great post here, wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Thanks Dan! Wishing you a great weekend and Thursday night taco dinner!
Ok, now I have to make tacos for dinner tonight
PS. That dancing taco is killing me
I’ll be over for dinner. 🙂
Tacos always always always sound good to me!! I love that these are crockpot-able. Makes life so much easier.
I totally hear you. Crockpot saves the day!
We loveeee tacos in our house. My favorite night of the week is taco night : ) I like that this is done in the crockpot … I really need to use mine more often (I only seem to take it out once a month or so!)
Enjoy Ashley, hope you give these steak tacos a try!
They look so delicious and easy. What an easy busy night meal!
Don’t you just love easy meal nights?
It has gotten so much cooler this week and I’m totally craving something like this to eat! I want meat! I need to pull out my crockpot/slow-cooker now…
Get it out Monica! The time has come!
Hey Pamela! We love tacos as well and they are a weekly menu staple in our house. You know whats funny? I’m totally not a slow cooker gal. My friends are always sharing their favorite slow cooker recipes with me to use on the blog. I haven’t had the best experience with using the slow cooker. Either I overcook the meat or it turns off in the middle of it’s cycle for some reason. I think if I was working out of the house, I would use it more, but since I’m not, I tend to cook things the old fashioned way 🙂
I love how you wrapped up your tacos like they’re in cute little blankets! So adorable! I also love how you always use everything from your garden. I can’t wait till you have your own gardening show! xoxo, Jackie
Thanks Jackie! I hope you are able to use your crockpot at least once this year! I always feel like it does wonders to meat to make it fall apart. I call it my magic box! You just throw a bunch of food in there and magic comes out!
You are talking to the lover of all tacos and burritos. All you have to say is “cilantro rice” and I come running. I wish I could run to your house right now:) I want to be eating these steak tacos so bad! They look so good, Pamela!
I am a total cilantro rice lover too, I could just eat that by the bowlful!
I love tacos! These look flavorful and super delicious.
Thanks Pam!
These look so perfectly good! I LOVE tacos or any kind of Mexican food really. I can’t imagine how great these taste with vegetables right out of your garden.
Thanks Andi! The fresh garden harvest definitely makes it a little more special in our household!
I’m with ya – I could totally eat tacos every day!!! I love Mexican food so very much and these tacos look like something I need to try
Thanks Ashley! I know of your love for Mexican food.. it’s a beautiful thing!
I would totally be able to have tacos every night, they’re so darn amazing! And your version looks so yummy, I’ve definitely got to try it with chicken (we don’t do beef at home haha) anytime soon! It’s such a pity that I have already made my dinner today, because I could have these otherwise 😉
Have a great weekend x
2 dinners in one day is totally ok Consuelo! 😉 Hope you enjoy these tacos, they would be great with chicken too! Have a lovely weekend!
I could eat tacos everyday!! I love that these are in the crockpot {which sadly I rarely use}. I’m going to have to bust that thing off the shelf and make these soon!!
Get that crockpot going Emily! Enjoy!
Oh my goodness… this is divine! Simply divine!
Thanks!
OH MY GOD!!! These tacos look sooooooo delicious!! ^_^ I CANNOT stop staring at them and I might just lick my screen!!!!!!!!!!
Hahaha, Samina! Enjoy the tacos an that screen! ;:)
These look really good! I agree who doesn’t love tacos 🙂
Agreed, I’m not sure if I trust someone who doesn’t like tacos!
Best part of tacos is taco leftovers! Tacos seriously rule!
You really have a crockpot fajita thing going on here. Love it!
Thanks Jamie! Tacos forever!
I love my crock pot AND tacos! Tacos in the crock pot every night!
I’ll be coming over every night then!
So this recipe WILL happen for two reasons: 1) I love my slow-cooker like it’s my job and 2) My boyfriend had been begging for taco night for weeks. Thanks for saving me the hassle of having to search for a recipe!
Awesome to hear Davida! Slow cooker just creates magic, I love mine dearly!
Haha…dancing taco is awesome. Love this recipe idea! My hubby and I are big taco fans. 🙂
Thanks Tina! Who doesn’t like a dancing taco!? 😉
Love those taco’s, anything slow cooked is delicious IMHO, YUM!
Thanks Suzanne, I totally agree! It just makes magic!
I never met a taco i didnt’ like! – this one included…and I can’t wait to pair with the cilantro rice! -M
Yummy! Let me know when it’s time for dinner!

I love tacos and taking this very simple recipe one step further is making it in the crockpot. I bet the beef strips were very tender and delicious. A great alternative to the usual ground beef version.
Definitely, it makes the beef just fall apart.. taco perfection in my eyes! Thanks for stopping by!
What a great make ahead dish! You reminded me that it’s time to fire up the crock pot! Have a great weekend Pamela!
Have fun with that crock pot Tessa! Have a great one too!
All I want now are those tacos and I know how fresh the ingredients are and how fantastic it would taste.
I think you need a taco night Ash!
Oooh! I just LOVE Pepper Steak and it is a fantastic idea to let the slow cooker do all the work for some tasty tacos! I just adore Southwest/Tex-Mex food and I’m glad you shared two special recipes this week. We eat Tex-Mex at least once a week. Thanks for sharing! Cannot wait to make these!! xoxo
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!
What a cute animation! I LOVE TACOS especially making my own corn tortillas!
My favorite tacos are the Chipotle seitan tacos with jicama slaw and charred corn with avocado dressing: http://veganmiam.com/recipes/chipotle-seitan-tacos-with-jicama-slaw-charred-corn and the chili-rubbed portobelo tacos with cilantro-jalapeno crema (gluten-free/vegan): http://veganmiam.com/recipes/chili-rubbed-portobello-tacos-with-cilantro-jalapeno-crema-gluten-free
The tacos are so good in Mexico City, too, at this small eatery, Taco Hola: http://veganmiam.com/the-americas/mexico/mexico-city-tacos-hola-el-guero
You got me all taco worked up now with those links! SWOONING!!!
🙂 Now I want to make tacos here in Spain!
Taco party in Spain!
I think my other comment is awaiting moderation, hope it pops up soon.
I got it, thanks for the heads up! 🙂
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! 🙂
I just loooove the energy you have for interesting and fun food! I enjoy that these are slow cooked without a lot of muss and fuss. Looks faaabulous, my friend!
Thank you! The slow cooker is my best friend, it does all the work and I just eat the yummy food! 🙂
I made these beauties &loved them a lot, so did my hubby! I topped min with a spicy guacamole & fried red onions! 🙂 They were superb, my dear friend! xxx
Thanks for letting me know Sophie, so glad you guys enjoyed them! Guacamole sounds awesome on top!
These tacos look great! And they’re especially awesome because of all the home-grown ingredients you threw in 🙂
Thanks Amy! Garden happiness!
Yet again, I feel like I am really missing out by not having a crockpot. I have to get on that!
I hope you get one Nora! It’s magic in the kitchen!
The steak looks so tender! Yum!
Thanks! It sure is tender and oh so moist!
I love things I can make in the slow cooker, and tacos are one of our favorites. Definitely adding this to our list to make soon! Yum!
Thanks Kristi! Have a great taco night!
Oh yum! We have a Mexican restaurant we just love. This looks like something they would serve!
Hope you’re able to make it at home and have a great night in! 🙂
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!
Your tacos look perfect! Love them.
Thanks Nik!
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?
