It only took 2 hours before it was sticking to the bottom of the crockpot because the water was dry. I added more water. Then a few hours later, it was once again dry. I turned it off after about 5 hours. Other than that, the recipe was fine. Nothing amazing but easy and healthy.

I made these for our family plus a dinner guest so I doubled the recipe. There wasn’t much talking in between each of us gulping down these delicious tacos! Instead of water I used veggie broth, added half an onion, a heaping teaspoon of cumin, and a pinch of cayenne. I love that it’s such a simple recipe and you can toss extra veggies in the pot for added freshness. This taco filling also had a really nice texture. Can’t wait to have them again!

In reply to Cathy. You can and I think 3 to 4 hours on high would work.

Is it possible to cook this on high but for a shorter amount of time? If so, long would I cook it for on high?

Thank you! Excited to try this recipe soon 🙂

In reply to Susan. I haven't tested it in the Instant Pot, but here's a similar recipe that has Instant Pot instructions:

In reply to Shawn. If there is a lot of liquid you can drain it.

Do I drain the liquids after 9 hours when it’s done cooking?

In reply to Kimi. I'd try 10 minutes on high.

I don’t have a slow cooker. If I want to make this in my Instant Pot, how much time do you recommend?
