Before heading out for a day of summer fun, toss all the ingredients in your slow cooker and get ready to come home to a festive South-of-the-Border meal!

  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon coriander
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt

Directions:

  1. Combine all the ingredients in a crockpot and cook for 6 hours on low.
