Dinner Success!

I love to try new recipes and they don't always turn out as planned. 
Tonight I wanted to try to make homemade Cafe Rio barbacoa salads.  I love Cafe Rio but there isn't one very close to us so we don't get to go there very often.  

It was a lot of steps, but pretty easy to make and turned out sooo good!  It tasted just like being at the restaurant.  Dinner success!!

Tortillas baked with cheese for the bottom of the salads.

Black beans cooked with cumin, garlic and cilantro.

Jasmine rice cooked with garlic, cilantro and lime.

Barbacoa meat cooked all day in the crockpot.

Salads were topped with a homemade ranch cilantro dressing.

Salad complete!
