The week just isn’t complete without a taco night. If you agree (and how could you not?), you’re in luck! This version comes together in just 20 minutes, with minimal cleanup required thanks to our handy oven-ready aluminum trays. We toss ready-to-heat pulled pork with pineapple juice, black beans, and a bounty of Tex-Mex spices, then bake until steamy. It’s all piled into warm tortillas with sour cream and a savory-sweet pineapple salsa for a truly spec-TACO-lar meal.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Mix & Warm Filling
1

• Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. • Drain pineapple, reserving juice in a medium bowl (you’ll use the pineapple in the next step). Stir Southwest Spice, Tex-Mex paste, tomato paste, and 2 TBSP water (4 TBSP for 4 servings) into juice. • Drain and rinse beans; add to bowl with spice mixture. Stir in pulled pork*, breaking meat into smaller pieces with a fork. Season generously with salt and pepper. • Transfer pork and bean filling to aluminum tray (divide between both trays for 4). • Bake on middle rack until warmed through, 15-18 minutes.

Make Salsa
2

• Meanwhile, wash and dry all produce. • Pick cilantro leaves from stems; tear leaves. Quarter lime. • In a small bowl, combine pineapple, torn cilantro, and juice from half the lime. Season with salt and pepper.

Warm Tortillas
3

• When pork and bean filling has 5 minutes left in the oven, wrap tortillas in aluminum foil. • Transfer to oven until warmed, 3-5 minutes.

Finish & Serve
4

• If pork and bean filling is not saucy enough, stir in another 1-2 TBSP water per tray. • Divide tortillas between plates; fill with as much pork and bean filling as you like. Top with sour cream and pineapple salsa. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.

Was happy to see black beans in this one as an addition to the pork. This was very easy to put together and pop in the oven. I'd have probably preferred corn tortillas instead of flour to have them a bit more like street tacos.

I love pulled pork but had never had it in tacos. This recipe was DELICIOUS. The pineapple and lime salsa made the tacos so fresh tasting.

Good meal, very quick and easy to put together. One suggestion: instead of adding water to the pulled pork mix, add reserved juice from the black beans. Gives it a little more flavor and thicker consistency.

Not near as quick as you say! Having to re-pull the pulled pork was time consuming. Then my tray arrived quite beaten up and when filled with the pork & beans was impossible to add water and stir to make the mix more "saucy". Actually enjoyed the meal, it just wasn't nearly as quick and easy as I thought it would be.

Everyone loved this! I did think there were too many black beans, so I cut down on them. You do give a lot of the meat, and we had a lot left over, but would have liked more of the pineapple for the salsa. That went really quick! And thank you for giving a lot of cilantro. We love that and most recipes don't give enough.

This meal was delicious. I have an avocado tree so I added cubed avocados to the pineapple salsa (fantastic). Also, I didn't add any salt to the pulled pork and it was perfect. Very good and quick dinner.

Could have used more pineapple salsa. Plenty of pork and beans but not enough pineapple salsa for all the tacos. Other than that, very tasty!!

Good flavors with pork and pineapple. Black beans were a nice touch. Almost feel like the quantity of beans could have been less.

I wasn't sure about pineapple and pulled pork flavors together, but it was great!
