Ropa Vieja

Made it to the store in the morning, just in time for the meat markdowns! Oh yeah! The roast I got was marked down $5! But, who wants a pot roast in the summer? Well, think about that roast in a whole new way with this incredible recipe.

Cook meat in crockpot with garlic, pepper and season salt. Shred (save 1/3C. liquid from the crockpot).

Layer meat, then veggies (cilantro, jalapeno, tomatoes, and onion), then repeat. 

Pour 1/3 cup of crockpot liquid over the top. 

Top with cheese.

Bake for 20 minutes.

Wrap em up and enjoy!
