Enchilada Pork Tacos with Sweet Corn Slaw


DSC_3560
I love dinner that goes in a crock pot. It’s so much less stress! I also love to pair crock pot meat with fresh ingredients. The contrast is so refreshing. The corn slaw just makes the dish. These also are the BEST with fresh uncooked tortillas that you cook at home. We get Tortilla Land brand from Costco and they are amazing! Really brings home that fresh Mexican flavor. So give those a try too. Here’s to a quick weeknight meal!

3-4 pound pork shoulder
1 taco packet
1 can diced green chilies
1/2 onion, finely diced
1 (10oz) can enchilada sauce

Sweet Corn Slaw
2 ears cooked sweet corn, removed from the cob
1 T olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
2 cups shredded cabbage
Juice of 1 lime
2 t seasoned rice vinegar
1/2 cup chopped cilantro

Mix together taco seasoning, green chilies, onion and enchilada sauce. Pour over pork in your crockpot. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.

For the corn slaw, add corn, oil, salt, pepper, cabbage, lime vinegar and cilantro to a bowl. Toss well and cover and place in fridge until ready to eat. 

When the pork is falling apart, shred with 2 forks and mix with remaining sauce in the crockpot. To eat, heat a fresh tortilla and top with meat and corn slaw. ENJOY!!
