Weight Watchers Recipe of the Day - Crock Pot Salsa Verde Beef
I made salsa verde beef to use in tacos recently. It was easy and delicious. And a big hit with both Rod and Mom.
This Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Beef has just 3 ingredients: beef, taco seasoning and green salsa.
And is best when it cooks low and slow. So it's perfect for a busy day.

Recipe Notes
To keep it lean I used a rump roast instead of chuck, which is tasty too, but higher in fat.

Not everybody here uses Slow Cooker or Crockpot however seems like the majority of the recipes have been presented using them. Can we get more using regular cooking pots...

Hi Orlando, While I'm a fan of the slow cooker and use it a lot, you'll also find tons of recipes here that don't. Here's a link to the hundreds of WW friendly recipes you'll find posted here: https://simple-nourished-living.com/category/food-health/cooking-recipes/ ~Martha

Love this. I've tried it with chicken and pork too. It doesn't get any easier. The crockpot can be a life saver for those who hate to be pot watching all day.

I love how easy it is to make this salsa beef. We love Mexican food and this recipe is great because you can make it as spicy, or mild, as you like.
