Clean eating shredded flank steak tacos AKA ... The Most Amazing Tacos Ever

Sounds adventurous, doesn't it? Dare I say ... I present to you ... "The Most Amazing Tacos Ever". Now they do take effort. But sooooooooooooooo worth it. And with a ridiculous amount of left overs that is more than freezer friendly ... Thus ... Budget Friendly!

As stated by my fiance dude ... "these are the best tacos I have ever had". And hes picky. I'm talking no onions, no tomatoes, no veggies ... So I need to be crafty to ensure its healthy & add what I need. And not only is he picky, but grew up in so cal next to all those amazing taco stands in San Diego :)

"The Most Amazing Tacos Ever"

- 1 package Corn Wheat Trader Joe's Tortillas
- 1 jar "Fresh and Easy Sante Fe Simmer Sauce"
- 1.5 lbs flank steak
- 1/2 tsp chipotle chili powder
- 1/2 tbsp onion flakes (or real onion if you dont have an onion picky significant other)
- 2 medium sized russet potatoes (I also love sweet potatoes or the heritage crazy color kind)
- approx 1/3 cup shredded mexican or cheddar cheese
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1/2 tsp rosemary
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- garlic salt
- black pepper
- approx 1 tbsp butter (I tend to use "Land O Lakes Butter with Olive Oil")
- Guacamole
- Greek Yogurt
- Ranch (if you've been a good girl and gone to Pure Barre this week :)

I recommend to start this either on a day off or if you have a few minutes before work to get your crock pot going ...

1 In your trusty crock pot, add your flank steak, garlic, rosemary, a sprinkle of garlic salt, onion flakes (or real onion ... for real onion, perhaps 1/4 cup diced?) and your simmer sauce. Now if your not lucky enough to be on the west coast and have a "Fresh and Easy" local, I would think another mexican inspired simmer sauce or perhaps a salsa would be sufficent. I would recommend a sauce that provides approx 16 oz)

2. After approx 6-8 hours on low, shred it. Dear goodness, its beyond amazing.
3. While your shredding, heat your oven to 400 degrees. Slice your russet potatoes into french fry shape. Toss in a zip bag or bowl with EVOO, a splash of onion flakes, black pepper (as much as you tend to like) and a pinch or so of garlic salt. Roast them into tasty awesomeness, approx 25 min

4. In a pan, melt divided doses of your butter. Sprinkle tortillas with garlic salt and fry for only 1 minute or so. Flip & add per tortilla about 1 tbsp shredded cheese till melted.

5. Top those tortillas with shredded meat, Guac, french fries, greek yogurt and ranch (if youve been well behaved. or dont care)

Enjoy those tasty bastards.
