Monday- Shredded beef tacos

• 1 tsp. salt
• 2 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp coriander
• 2lb top round roast
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 8-oz can tomato sauce
• 1/2 chipotle chili in adobo sauce, seeded peeled and finely chopped
• 4 cloves garlic finely chopped
• tortillas

Step One:

Combine salt, chili powder, cumin and coriander. Rub all over the roast.  Heat oil in a large pan on the stove.  Sear both sides of the meat.

Step Two:
Place the meat in the crock pot.  Mix tomato sauce, chipotle and garlic and pour over the meat.  Cover and cook on low for 6 hours.  Shred the meat and combine with enough sauce to moisten.  Serve with tortillas and your choice of toppings.

Its a great prep and forget about it meal.

The Plan

So I've decided to make a cooking blog.  My plan is to share my weekly meal plan and then post the recipes each day.  The hope is that other will share their recipes as well for me to experiment with.  I love to cook and bake, and with 3 children at times its my only sanity.  Seriously, nothing is more relaxing then kneading dough by hand when 3 kids are napping.

So for this weeks meals:

Breakfast:(in no order)
Cereal
Cimmon french toast
waffles
Oatmeal

Lunch: (again in no order)
Leftovers
PB&J
Hotdogs
Mac and cheese

Dinners: (In order from Monday to Sunday)
Shredded beef tacos
Chinese pork roast
Corn chowder with shrimp
Krabby patties with cheese aka cheese burgers
Chicken and dumplings
Pork tenderloin with apples and onions
Shrimp grillers

I'd love to know your weekly plans as well!
