- 4 cups of crockpot shredded beef
- 4 corn tortillas
- ¼ cup pickled red onions
- ¼ cup cojita cheese or dairy free feta
- 2 cups arugula
- ¼ cup jalapeno sauce or avocado ranch
- ¼ cup green onions chopped

If your shredded beef is cold, gently warm it in a microwave or a small saucepan over medium heat until it's hot throughout.
Warm the corn tortillas. You can do this in the microwave (about 15-20 seconds for all four) or in the oven on 350 for 3-5 minutes.
Divide the warm shredded beef evenly among the four tortillas.
Top each taco with a handful of fresh arugula.
Sprinkle generously with cotija cheese (or dairy-free feta).
Add a spoonful of pickled red onions to each.
Drizzle with your chosen jalapeno sauce or avocado ranch.
Finish by garnishing with chopped green onions.
