SHREDDED GREEN CHILE BEEF



Shredded Green Chile Beef image

This Tex-Mex pulled beef roast is tender, slightly spicy, juicy, and so delicious served over mashed potatoes or rice. The beef also makes the best soft tacos you've ever had. Save any leftover pulled beef in the liquid to prevent it from drying out. -Colleen Delawder, Herndon, Virginia

EASY SHREDDED BEEF GREEN CHILE ENCHILADA CASSEROLE



Easy Shredded Beef Green Chile Enchilada Casserole image

I was looking for a quick and different way to use the leftover shredded beef cooked in a crock pot the day before. I came up with this recipe which is quick and easy without having to roll each tortilla individually . My husband doesn't like corn tortillas or red sauce so I used green sauce and flour tortillas and layered them in a 8 1/2 inch casserole dish that fit the torrillas perfectly. I knew it was a hit when he went back for a second and third helping! It also tastes great left over the next day. You could also make it with shredded chicken. (Cooking the beef is not included in prep time)
