Crock outside the bun.

I did pizza in a pot during fondue week numero uno. Doing other things in a pot seemed like the logical step for me to take.

"Taco in a Pot" (3.5 quart pot)

~1/2 lb ground beef
~1 C frozen corn
~1/2 C onion, chopped
~4 oz diced chilies
~1/2 C hot taco sauce
~1/2 C hot salsa (I used Newman's hot)
~1 C shredded Mexican cheese blend

Brown ground beef and add to crock pot.
Add corn, onion, chilies, taco sauce, and salsa.
Cover and cook on low for 4 hours.
Add cheese and mix well.

Serve with...stuff. We had tortilla scoops, broccoli, and cauliflower.

6 servings.

The original recipe called for olives, but we don't do olives. It also called for mild taco sauce, but I substituted hot because we like things spicy. Still, this wasn't as hot as I/we thought it was going to be. It was good, but I think if I make this again, I'd have to add some sort of spice. Tacos are supposed to be spicy, yes?
