Pork Tacos

....we love a good pork tenderloin in our house! but i must admit that we get tired of preparing it the same ol' way.....one day when talking to a good friend of mine about trying to cook good dinners for our family she gave me this great idea....and we are so glad she did!!


Pork Tacos

** it doesn't get much easier than this!! **

- place a pork tenderloin (1 1/2 - 2 lb size) in a crockpot.
- pour one jar of salsa all over the top
- cook on low all day ( ~ 8hrs ) 
- shred with forks when done, saving a little bit of juices to pour over the top
- serve in soft taco shells with fresh avocados or guacomole, pico de gallo, cilantro, sour cream & mexican cheese blend.

these turn out so great!! we usually serve ours with a side of black beans or refried beans....the kids even love them :)

another hint....watch the sales papers for pork tenders....just yesterday i scored 3 pork tenders for $12 at the piggly wiggly...they were on sale for $1.99/lb!!....and when i say pork tender i am NOT referring to the Hormel pre-seasoned pork tenderloins....those are way too expensive and honestly not that tasty to me...


 
Enjoy!! Bon Appetit!!
