How to make a good meal on a shoe string budget.
So Pulled Pork Tacos are as easy as a food network recipe. I gave it a try and MOMMY they are good. I pulled together this spread for about 15 bucks and fed about 10 peeps and had leftovers.
The secret to the cost saving factor in this recipe is using pork shoulder. I am experimenting with different ways of cooking more for less and using unexpected things to keep it all fun and healthy and different. We feed a lot of people a lot of food a lot of times every week, so I have to put my thinking cap on. I mean you can only do spaghetti or beans and rice so many times. I did leave the cilantro out and added it for garnish on the side as I knew someone eating it doesn’t like the taste of it. I also used shredded cabbage instead of pickled onions. Other than that, it was easy, tasty, cheap and quick to clean up. I always have a empty dishwasher ready to go, and instruct everyone to rinse and load as they finish…..that way the mess is done even after having a house full of guests. I know I am rude, I make my guests clean but hey……I am building community and not my cleaning resume;-) Give it a try and let me know what you think. Here is the original link to the food network video that gives you all the details.
Grace and Peace to all those stretching a buck~
this is on my list to make this week! YUMMMMMY.
