Went to Giant yesterday for the first BIG shopping trip in a few weeks. The kids all needed stuff for their lunches, and it seemed we were out of fresh produce of any kind. My DH mentioned he was craving steak, so I picked up some nice looking sirloin to marinate and cook London broil style. Half of the left over pork roast from Sunday night, went into homemade BBQ last night with coleslaw. We had gotten some really yummy sauce from the East Carolina BBQ company when we were down there in November. I love the vinegary flavor it adds to the shredded pork. Then just some good old fashioned KC masterpiece finishes the sandwich.

The rest of the pork leftovers will go into these great little tacos – here’s the recipe

Shredded pork roast (shoulder is best, but loin will do)
Thinly sliced radishes
Sliced avocado
Cilantro with stems
Plenty of salt and pepper
Corn tortillas cooked in a little oil until they’re mostly soft with a few crispy places.

Just roll the stuff up inside the tortilla – very different and very yummy. You can add sour cream if you like, but I find that the subtle blend of flavors is great without.

They had beautiful ground beef, so I made some chili for Wednesday night. And picked up some sirloin to marinate and grill Thursday. So, my weeknight meals are done! Happy happy!

I also picked up the January issue of Bon Appetit - lots of yummy ideas in there to try - I'm especially excited about the sweet and salty dessert ideas.
