Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Drain pineapple, reserving juice in a small bowl; roughly chop pineapple. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion; mince a few slices until you have 1 TBSP (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Roughly chop cilantro. Quarter lime. Halve, core, and thinly slice green pepper into strips.
• In a second small bowl, combine pineapple, minced onion, half the cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice to taste. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced onion and green pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and slightly softened, 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce to medium heat.
• Add pork* and Southwest Spice Blend to pan with veggies. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. • Stir in pineapple juice and Tex-Mex paste; cook until thickened and saucy, 1-2 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. • Remove pan from heat and stir in remaining cilantro.
• While pork cooks, wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.
• Divide tortillas between plates and fill with pork filling. Top with pineapple salsa and dollop with sour cream. Serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.

Reviews from our home cooks
Very easy and delicious. Was a nice change from the usual tacos to have the pineapple salsa. Nicely spicy too without being too hot.
Soo good! I got it with tofu instead. One of my favorite meals from here and so easy to make plus it doesn't make much of a mess to clean up.
Omg this was soooo good! I wasn't sure what to expect with the recipe mod. Hello Fresh does tofu so well! The quality of the tofu provided is great and I can usually expect it to be seasoned just right!!
I appreciate the option to make this veggie-friendly with tofu... Delicious and filling! It did take my husband about 20 minutes longer than estimated though to make.
The meal was delicious! But the promo photo of the meal seems to show grilled pineapple and tomato, which are not part of the recipe. It was a bit misleading.
Surprisingly good! Would have loved a little more pineapple salsa.
These were great! The pineapple gave it such a good flavor
Great vegetarian option! I wish there were more tofu options offered!
Instructions were for beef tacos and unclear for tofu. Was I supposed to cook the tofu in the same pan? How long should I cook it for? Should I crumble or cube it?
Really good! The recipe could benefit from marinating the tofu the night before.
