Some people put their slow-cooker away during the summer but I think it’s is the perfect time to pull it out!  Using a slow cooker makes dinner easy to throw together early in the day so you can spend the rest of the time relaxing, playing outside, or getting those summer projects done.  It also doesn’t heat up the house like the oven does.

After searing the meat on all sides you just toss it in the slow-cooker and let it do it’s thang (get all tender and juicy), throw it in a tortilla, top it with some fresh mango salsa, and enjoy the party goin on inside your mouth.
