Crockpot Tacos by Brooke

Crock Pot Tacos
You leave this in the crock pot for 8-10 hours so you can whip this up after breakfast and eat it for dinner.

4 lbs. pork or chicken (if you use chicken, you'll want to add some water before cooking so it doesn't dry out too much)
Mix together (separately):
1/4 c. chili powder
2 cans chopped green chiles (4 oz. cans diced)
salt to taste (about 1 1/2 tsp)
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp taco seasoning
2 tsp minced garlic

Cook on low 8-10 hours. The meat will easily shred once done.
