This basic recipe can be used in so many ways, the sky is the limit. Think quesadillas, tacos, cottage pies, nourish bowls, salads. Limitless!

This recipe is a stock standard recipe that you should immediately pin, or save to a menu so you can find it easily on demand. If you have a small family, this recipe will feed you up to 4 meals. If you have a hungry set of boys, I still think it will feed your family at least twice. It makes a TRUCKLOAD. It seems that when you shred meat it increases in volume. So cook once, eat twice or thrice as the case may be!

COOK ONCE, EAT TWICE:

Remove one of the pork loins before cooking in the sauce and use in the Caribbean Pork Nourish Bowl with Coconut Rice
