Ingredients

  • 2 cups leftover pork roast
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
  • 4 servings cooked brown rice
  • 1 cup queso fresco cheese or shredded cheese of choice
  • 15 oz can black beans drained, rinsed, and heated
  • 1 cup sweet corn (fresh or frozen-thawed) heated
  • 2 tomatoes diced
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • pickled red onion or scallions
  • hot sauce
  • 1 fresh avocado

For the Avocado Crema

  • 1/2 ripe avocado
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Add all of the avocado crema ingredients into a food processor. Process until smooth.

  2. Mix the leftover pulled pork roast with the BBQ sauce, and re-heat through (stove-top or microwave).

  3. Heat up the drained and rinsed black beans. You can microwave or heat over the stove (add a splash of water). If you have hot fresh steamed brown rice, you can stir the beans in with the steamed rice and cover to heat through.

  4. Assemble bowls with desired ingredients. I like to start with rice and beans on the bottom, corn, pork, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, pickled red onions and drizzle the crema and hot sauce over the top. Yum! Would also be good mixed up and scooped up with chips, or wrapped in a burrito!
