Shredded
Beef
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound beef, cut into 1 inch cubes
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin seed or ground cumin
1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes
Heat the oil in a large skillet. Brown beef cubes for 10 to 12 minutes. Reduce
the heat, add the garlic, salt and cumin. Cook another 15 minutes
Add the can of tomatoes and heat to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, cover and
cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Add water to the skillet as needed to keep the
mixture from boiling dry
When cooked very tender, cool, then shred the meat using 2 forks. Place back on
heat and stir until most of the liquid has evaporated
If planning to freeze, cool before packing in freezer bags and placing in
freezer
For soft burritos, top a warm flour tortilla with the meat mixture, salsa, and
grated cheese
It is the experience of living that is important, not searching
for meaning. We bring meaning by how we love the world.
