The kids sports and activities have kicked into high gear the last several weeks, so it’s back to the crock pot.  This one is easy, yummy and can be served in shifts as kids and husbands return from practices and such.  I use the Costco pork “buns” that come in a 3 pack and are individually wrapped. I keep them in the freezer and  you don’t even need to thaw them before putting in the crock pot.

1 2lb boneless pork loin 

1 can S&W pinquito beans w/ spices

1 chopped jalapeno (fresh or jarred)

1/4 tsp ground cumin

1/4 tsp ground cayenne

1 tsp ground red chili pepper

Tortillas (I’m really liking the new Mission Life Balance medium-sized tortillas)

Topping suggestions: Shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado and Tapatio

Put pork loin, beans with juices, jalapenos and spices in slow cooker.  Cook for 8 hours on low. Remove pork, shred it (should just fall apart) and mix back into slow cooker.

Warm tortillas one at a time in non-stick fry pan over medium heat. Keep warm in foil if not serving immediately.

Using slotted spoon, put pork mixture onto tortillas, add desired toppings, close burrito and eat!
