Creamy Mexican Beef

This is a delicious, mildly zesty, dairy-free slow cooker meal. I love cooking in the slow cooker because they are low-effort recipes and make a lot of great leftovers! When you convert to cooking with whole ingredients you’ll be amazed how amazing leftovers taste.

  • 1 Tbl avocado oil to coat the bottom
  • Beef shoulder roast
  • 3 Tbl Mexican spice blend (2 Tbl rubbed directly on roast)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 8 cups Normandy Mix or other veggie of choice (Normandy is a frozen mix available at BJs that has summer squashes, carrots, etc)
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 chunks of garlic (or 3 or 4 cloves)

Oil bottom of slow cooker, place in the roast (rubbed with spices). Then add the water and the remaining ingredients.

Set slow cooker to 8 hr low, but at 7 hours in remove the meat and chop/separate it all up and put it back in. Leave the lid off until the majority of the liquid is gone (another half hour ish)

Creamy Sauce

  • 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1/3 cup canned coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp psyllium husk

Mix these 3 ingredients together well, then add to crock pot and stir thoroughly.

Mmmmm, … cat food!

But no seriously, this was delicious 🙂
