Monday Meals: Slow Cooker Beef Lettuce Wraps with Quick Pickles

Just because it’s warming up outside, this is no time to retire your slow cooker. In fact, it’s the perfect time to free yourself up from kitchen duty. Prep your meals ahead of time, let them cook all day and enjoy a walk before dinner instead of a frenzied hour of cooking. Honor the season by incorporating more fresh vegetables and zingy flavors into your menu. These Slow Cooker Beef Lettuce Wraps with Quick Pickles from Cooking Light fit the bill. Rich, satisfying beef, crisp lettuce and a garnish of snappy carrot and freshly pickled cucumber, this meal wraps it all up.
