Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Halve, core, and thinly slice green pepper into strips. Quarter lime. Roughly chop cilantro. Drain pineapple.
• Drizzle oil in a hot large pan. Add pulled pork*, green pepper, and Southwest Spice Blend; cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until pork is warmed through and green pepper is slightly softened, 4-6 minutes. • Add half the Tex-Mex paste (all for 4) and a splash of water; stir until mixture is combined and creates saucy pork. Remove from heat. (For 4, cook in batches, wiping out pan and adding a drizzle of oil between batches.) TIP: While the pork cooks, move on to Step 3.
• Divide guacamole between two serving bowls (four serving bowls for 4). Stir in a squeeze of lime (big squeeze for 4), a pinch of cilantro, salt, and pepper. TIP: You can plate chips and guac at this point! • In a small microwave-safe bowl, mix drained pineapple, ¼ tsp sugar (½ tsp for 4), and juice from one lime wedge (two wedges for 4). Microwave for 30 seconds. • Drain any liquid from pineapple mixture and stir in pico de gallo (draining first) and a pinch of cilantro.
• Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels; microwave for 30 seconds. • Fill tortillas with pulled pork and pepper mixture. Using a slotted spoon, top with pineapple salsa. Garnish with remaining cilantro and dollop with sour cream. Drizzle with as much hot sauce as you like. • Serve tacos with tortilla chips, cantina guacamole, and any remaining lime wedges on the side.
Pulled Pork is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.

Reviews from our home cooks
Love how easy but the "pulled pork" was more ground than pulled. Not as appetizing. Tortillas were under cooked and a bit gummy. I like this, I would cook the tortillas some on the stove.
Love the pulled pork in tacos. Simple to make and taste great.
Quick and easy but I found this meal to be salty and I did not add any salt.
I didn't love working with the cooked pork it was hard to separate again in the pan.
This has been our favorite recipe so far. Absolutely delicious. Can't wait for this recipe to be offered again.
Quick easy delicious, would request corn tortillas in the future
Perfect combination of sweet, spice, and smoky! Thanks for including the guac and chips. Rounded out the meal perfectly.
That took longer than you said it would. It was still delicious.
The meat took longer and more work to shred apart than expected. It was very compacted in the packaging.
Great item, fresh ingredients and the pineapple was a great twist
