Slow-Cooker Pork Tacos

Serves 8

4 pounds boneless pork shoulder, cubed

1 ounce can no-salt-added diced tomatoes

1 tablespoon cumin

1 tablespoon chili powder

¾ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground pepper

8 6-inch corn tortillas, warmed

2 cups pineapple chunks, chopped

3 cups romaine lettuce

1 tablespoon weekend-prepped lime salad dressing

Lime Salad Dressing

1/4 cup lime juice

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 tsp sugar

1/4 tsp salt


Directions

1. In the morning, spray a 4quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Trim the fat from the pork. Place in the cooker with tomatoes, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 7 hours.

2. Shred meat using 2 forks. With a slotted spoon, top each tortilla with 1/4 cup pork. Divide the pineapple among the tacos. Save 2 cups leftover pork for Wednesday and freeze any remaining up to 3 months.

3. In a medium bowl combine lettuce, cilantro, and salad dressing. Serve with the tacos
