Hi everyone, I'm sorry I haven't given a recipe in a couple of days but I hadn't cooked anything worth sharing. LOL I tried these tonight out of my Sandra Lee cookbook and loved them! A little spicy but coming from me that doesn't mean much;) It only takes 10 minutes to prepare so it is a great thing to make when you don't have a lot of time.
1 container (17 ounce) precooked pork roast
1/4 cup enchilada sauce
1 tsp Mexican seasoning
8 flour tortillas or corn tortillas
1/3 cup chopped onions
2 tbs chopped cilantro (optional)
1 lime, cut into wedges (very optional! lol)
shredded lettuce, tomatoes, and mexican style cheese (all optional)
1. Remove pork roast from package and fork to shred. Place in a microwave safe bowl along with the enchilada sauce and mexican seasoning. Mix together. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 4 minutes.
2. Heat tortillas according to package directions. You can also use corn torillas if you prefer them:)
3. Meanwhile add onion and cilantro to meat. Stir to combine.
4. All done now Make your tacos! LOL
I have to say that after rereading it I didn't follow the directions at all! Not sure how I missed the onions or that she used corn tortillas! Probably because the picture in the book has flour tortillas! Anyway, I love flour tortillas so it is no big deal. Plus I changed some of the directions too. She has you forking the roast after it is hot and I did it before. Plus if you do it before it can marinate better because it isn't all in one chunck. Made more sense to me. I didn't have cilantro but I added sour cream and the mexican shredded cheese to mine:) Make them the way that sounds good to you. The precooked pork roast is in with the meat at walmart. It was only $5.48 here. I couldn't find Mexican seasoning either so I bought a Mexican Fiesta marinade package! It turned out delicious! I would double it if you are feeding more then 4 people. That was the easiest meal to make and clean up! Hope you like it if you try it! I love you all! Love Andrea
That sounds really good and EASY! I will put it on my grocery list/menu this week. Thanks! Steve made Chili yesterday so we will eat that for a couple of days. Chili dogs tomorrow I think. I love this and as I get ideas I will email you. On my list already is Spaghetti and meatballs and then make enough meatballs for meatball subs too. I love you and miss you so much! It wasn't the same without having the Tuey's over for chili! Love you!
ReplyDeleteTonight I'm cooking the chili! I'm about to cook it! This one sounds so good too! Yes, Lishy! Easy!!! I like that!
ReplyDeleteI love you so very much, my Sunshine! My Lishy!
Love 4ever, mommy xo
Wow! That does sound easy! I made tacos last night so I'll have to wait to try this one. Oh, I got a tip from Grandma Reba and Katy. THey said to add a can of black beans to your taco meat (regular ones - this recipe wouldn't need them!). It makes the meat go further and adds to it. It was good that way but yesterday all I could find was a can of Ranch Style beans so I tried them. Michael LOVED it!!! He said it made the meat taste even better and I caught him taking a couple of bites of it by itself before I put the meat up. :)
ReplyDeleteAndrea, I love this blog!! I just got on here to get my grocery list ready! Now that's a coupld of meals I won't have to think up! Thank you!!! And I tried the wraps this week and loved them! I got a different type of wrap than you said (couldn't find the other kind) and I had to toast it a little so it would taste right but then it tasted great!
Can't wait to try the recipes!
I'm hungry! I have my cilantro and I'm about to fix these!! Yum! Thank you so much, my Sunshine! So fun! Love you sooo much!!! xo
