I crave this recipe.  I do a double batch and freeze half for another time.    This is a Weigh****cher recipe.  It calls for tortillas.  It would be easy to sub for  whole wheat or eat the filling without the tortilla.  I have also eaten the inside on a salad.  My kids love this. 

Beef and Bean soft tacos
1 1/2 cups of beef broth
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 pound of flank steak
3/4 cup of tomato salsa  (plus some for when you serve)
1/2 cup of black beans rinsed and drained  ( I usually up this because I like the beans)
1/4 cup of fresh cilantro leaves(  I leave this out)
2 Tablespoons chopped canned chopped mild green chilies
tortillas
sour cream( or Greek yogurt)

Mix the broth and chili powder in slow cooker.  Add the steak.  Cook for 4-5 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low

transfer steak to cutting board.  remove all but 1/4 cup of the liquid.  Shred the beef and return to slow cooker.  Stir in salsa, beans, cilantro, and chilies.  Coo****il heated.  About 5-10 minutes

top tortilla with beef and bean mixture and serve with sour cream. 

Sometimes I add baby spinach and cheese.

We LOVE flank steak in this house! Like you said, I have great low carb tortillas or could even toss this on a salad--sounds great.

Thanks!! And what a foxy little puppy you have in your avatar!! Just want to eat him up!
