How to make taco boats

In a large skillet add shredded pork roast, taco seasoning, and water. Heat on medium-high heat, frequently stirring until the pork is thoroughly heated through and the liquid has reduced.

Place seasoned pork in taco boat shell, top with a tablespoon of salsa, a tablespoon of shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream and 1 slice of avocado. Garnish with cilantro.

Repeat until you have all taco boats full. Makes about 8 Pork Taco boats.

If you prefer your pork taco boats with different toppings, you could add jalapeno peppers, fresh chopped tomatoes, black olives in addition to the avocado.

Preparing a meal using leftovers helps save money and gives you a little more time, to spend with your family.

Also, you could serve the pork taco boats with rice and some black beans. Unless your family isn’t a fan of black beans.
