Chuck Roast Tacos

As a mom, I am constantly seeking out easy and quick meals that are both delicious and filling. Minimal prep work is much appreciated! We went to a friend's house for Memorial Day Weekend and they made chuck roast tacos and they were SO good so I had to ask for the recipe (thanks Joey!). I made some tweaks based on what we had at home and now this recipe will be on repeat in the Sharkey home!

Chuck Roast Tacos

Ingredients

• ~3lbs chuck roast

• 2 packets of taco seasoning (we use Siete brand)

• 1 white onion, diced

• 5 garlic cloves, minced

• 3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

• 1/2 cup bone broth

⸻

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 300 deg F.

2. Spread the diced onion in the bottom of Dutch oven (or slow cooker)

3. Place the chuck roast on top of the onions.

4. Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the roast and add the garlic.

5. Pour the vinegar and bone broth around the sides of the roast (avoid pouring directly over the seasoning).

6. Cover tightly with the lid.

7. Bake for ~3 hours (1hr/lb of roast).

   1. If using a slow cooker, cook on low for 8 hours (don't remove the lid before then)

8. Check for doneness around 3-3.5 hrs (or 8 hrs in slow cooker). The roast should shred easily.

9. Remove from oven and let it rest in the juices for 15-20 min.

10. Shred just before serving!

Sourdough Honey Cinnamon Graham Crackers

The perfect snack and best part is it's refined sugar free and just sweetened with honey! It's the perfect blend between a graham cracker and cinnamon toast crunch! They are delicious and my toddler loves them, which is a definite win! Better than store-bought and made with good ingredients!

Instructions

1. Mix dry ingredients: flours, baking soda, salt, cinnamon

2. Grate in cold butter and toss until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

3. Add wet ingredients: honey, discard, vanilla

4. Stir until a dough forms. Add milk only if dough feels dry or crumbly

5. Flatten into a disk and cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate 30–60 minutes.

6. Preheat oven to 350°F

7. Roll the dough between parchment sheets to about 3 mm thick (I do half of the dough at a time to get it extra thin)

8. Cut into rectangles with a knife or pizza cutter and poke holes with a fork.

9. Brush with melted butter + honey mixture and sprinkle with cinnamon to get that "cinnamon toast crunch" effect.

10. Bake 12–16 minutes until edges are golden.
