Another Great Healthy Recipe! Thai Beef Salad
Thai Beef Salad
Lettuce Wrap Carnitas
Mmm. Tacos.
Here is another awesome Paleo friendly recipe from Primal Mama…Gotta love it!
What you will need:
1 pork tenderloin (this would work with chicken or meat too)
juice of 2 lime
1 T chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp coriander
1/4 tsp cinnamon
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup chicken broth (low sodium, gluten free)
1/2 a purple onion
1 green bell pepper
1 head of butter lettuce (or lettuce you can make into taco shells)
store bought guacamole (or make your own)
What You Do:
Get out your ‘ol faithful crockpot. Put the chicken broth in, the lime juice and the two bay leaves. In a small bowl mix up all the spices. Coat the pork with the spices and give it a little massage. Lay the pork in the crockpot and turn it on low. Cover and forget it. It should be done in five to six hours so hopefully you have a crockpot with an automatic timer. If you don’t Amazon.com has them with free shipping. They are worth every penny. If you have time in the morning you can dice up the purple onion and green pepper. If not it’s easy to do in the evening. Saute the onion and pepper together until crisp/tender.
Shred the pork. Get out the lettuce and put a few leaves on everyone’s plate. Top with some meat, sauteed veggies, pico de gallo, and guacamole. If the kids don’t like the idea of a lettuce wrap you can easily serve this in a bowl and add anything else they may like to it.
