I’ve waited long enough…I say it’s officially slow cooker season here in the States! Time to drag those old Rival crock pots or fancy slow cookers out from the back shelves and get busy making some of the easiest and tastiest paleo family meals ever!

If you’re like me, your fall calendar is filling up fast. The holidays are coming and our to-do list seems to get longer by the day. That’s why it’s nice this time of year to have a “set it and forget it” slow-cooked meal waiting for you once in awhile so you can relax after a long day.

Here’s my latest original paleo slow-cooker entrée…spicy shredded beef.

Let me just say I normally don’t eat a ton of beef. I prefer poultry or fish for my protein. But this recipe was the exception – it just tasted so good that I found it incredibly hard to resist.

I made this recipe as a spicy soft taco meal the first day, and then whipped up a quick paleo shredded beef and lettuce salad with it the second day. That’s one of the beauties of slow cooked meals – leftovers!

If you want to enjoy this as a soft taco meal, you really need to check out my easy Paleo Tortillas.

Want the ultimate topping for your soft taco? Check out this simple Paleo Avocado-Cilantro-Lime Sauce – it’s really refreshing and the perfect match for this spicy shredded beef.

Paleo meal planning can change your life. Believe it or not, I don’t like to cook every day. I work weekdays like a lot of you, and I know stay-at-home moms are just as busy!

All it takes is a little extra effort and you can give yourself at least a day or two off from heavy kitchen duty during your workweek. I always try to make a big meal on Sundays along with a batch of egg muffins or paleo pancakes I can freeze for the next week.

Like most of the important things in our lives, living the paleo life is so much easier when you plan ahead.

I hope you try this awesome recipe. It’s really easy, and a little fiesta for your taste buds!

We used my paleo tortilla recipe for the soft tacos, but you can also tear off a big lettuce leaf and stuff the goodies inside if you want to keep your meal low carb.

I’ll also show you how to use this paleo shredded beef recipe to make a quick and yummy salad in a post later this week…so stay tuned for that.

Hope you enjoy! :)
