Another new Mexican recipe that the “Whole Family” LOVES!!! 

Carne Asada!!!

This is such a SIMPLE, flavorful, comfort-foodie, kick up your senses kind of meal. You will want to make it again and again.

So let’s get started.

I started this recipe with a crock-pot pork roast that I seasoned with salt, pepper, comino, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and oregano. After 8 hours of cooking the pork in it’s own juices it was falling apart and was perfect to shred and use for my carne asada.

If you don’t have a roast you can always use the carne asada dressing on raw meat, marinade and then cook or grill. Turns out wonderful!

Here’s what you need: 

Dressing:

2 jalapeños, diced

3 tbsp minced garlic

1 tbsp dried oregano

2 limes, juiced

1 orange, juiced

3 tbsp olive oil

a dash of salt and pepper

……….

1 pound pork (or meat of your choice)

1 onion, sliced

1 bell pepper, sliced

1 tbsp coconut oil

1 tomato, diced

1 avocado, sliced

lettuce leaves for tacos

……….

Here’s what you do: 

1. Grill onions and bell peppers in coconut oil for 10-15 minutes.

2. Combine oil, juices, garlic, peppers, and spices.

3. Pour dressing over pork and mix together.

It should look like this beautiful bowl of seasoned pork:

4. Fill lettuce leaves with onions, bell peppers and pork. Top with diced tomatoes and sliced avocado.

I hope your whole family enjoys this meal as much as my “Whole Family” did.

Enjoy!!!
