I actually used black beans cuz I'm not to found of the kidney beans. I also kinda doctor mine up to my likings by using different spices. So I did put a little bit of fresh cilentro and I used cumin in mine. I had forgot to mark what stuff was and had brought a little bowl that had fage yogurt and some ff sour cream mixed in a bowl with some chopped cilantro but I'm thinking most didnt know what that was for but it really taste good in there with some cheese added to your bowl too. I use honeysuckle ground turkey 97/3. I really love that brand and their sausage is pretty good too. I get the ones in the rolls and can only find it at wal mart around here.

1 beef roast......your choice of size.
2 small jars of Pickled pepperocinis....(I use Mt Olive brand, just because they aren't hotter than some other brands)
Put roast in crock pot, pour both jars of peppers and juice on the roast. Put the lid on and turn on high for 6 hours.....turn down on low for an additional 3-4 hours. Pull the roast into small chunks and serve! Best served with hoagie rolls.
Great to make overnight and serve for lunch the next day, if you can stay out of the crock pot during the night when you wake up smelling the yummy roast! LOL

Recipe for fruit tray.........Drive 100 miles, stop at the nearest walmart and head straight to the fruit section and choose one. Take it to the checkout to pay for it. Smile, say Thanks you and quickly exit the store before you start to shop for items you do not need!
