Farmer's Daughter

Although 20+ years removed from the farm, farmer's daughter is still a title I enjoy.
Growing up on a farm taught me many invaluable lessons, two of those being frugality and creativity.
Now as a wife and a mom, I love to put into practice what I learned growing up as a
Farmer's Daughter.

Slow-cooked pork tacos


We loved pulled pork around here! And this tasty twist on pulled pork helped spice up supper.

1 boneless pork sirloin roast (2 pounds)
1 1/2 cups salsa verde
1 med. onion, chopped
1/4 cup chopped dried apricots
2 Tbsp. lime juice
2 tsp. minced garlic
1 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
Dash hot pepper sauce

In a slow cooker, combine all ingredients. Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours or until the meat is very tender.

Shred the pork with two forks.

1. Serve on flour tortillas, warmed. Place about 1/2 cup pork mixture down center of each tortilla. Serve with shredded cheese and sour cream.

2. Serve on corn tortilla, fried. Place about 1/3 cup pork mixture down center of each tortilla. Serve with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, shredded cheese and sour cream.
