crock pot meal #2

Another hugely successful meal.

Biggest lesson learned this meal: A slow cooker is extremely slow when you neglect to plug it in for the first two hours of cooking.

Thankfully Rory found it in the kitchen, realized nothing was smelling yet and put the cord into the socket. Things went better after that.

We loved this meal. Easy as pie (took 8 minutes to assemble in the morning) and very tasty.

Pulled Pork Tacos from this crock pot cookbook

2 pounds boneless pork roast

1 cup salsa

1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies (use them all! Don't be afraid of flavor!)

1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

flour or corn tortillas

shredded cheddar, sour cream, salsa, sour cream

1. Place roast, salsa, chilies, garlic salt and pepper into crock pot. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours (I cooked mine for five hours)

2. Remove pork from crock pot and shred with two forks. (After shredding I put it all back into those yummy juices) Serve on tortillas. Top as desired.

This was really good. And I'm not going to say that about every recipe. Because the wild rice casserole I made tonight was terrible. Except that Rory and Ivar had seconds and thirds and loved it. But believe me, it was not delicious. More on that "meal" another time...
