SLOW-COOKER SHREDDED BEEF LETTUCE CUPS
The slow cooker is our summertime go-to for cool kitchen cooking. After swim lessons and outdoor activities, it's so nice to come back to a tasty, light dinner. If you can't find Bibb or Boston, green leaf lettuce is less sturdy but can work in a pinch. -Elisabeth Larsen, Pleasant Grove, Utah
