Sweet Pulled Pork Served With Lime Rice and Topped with Cilantro Dressing

This has become a family favorite from the first time it hits your mouth.

This is a recipe that a friend gave my mom so I am not sure who to give all the credit to. This is so wonderful and great for a crowd. It will impress any of your friends with little effort at all.

Cilantro Dressing

• 1 clove garlic

Lime Rice

• 1 cup of rice

Pile everything into a tortilla. Add salsa, avocado, and cheese. This is also good over chips. ENJOY!!!

The pork can be made days ahead and re-heated in the oven or crock-pot. It also freezes well, so you can can have dinner for two nights.
