Cafe Rio Pork Roast and Cilantro Dressing

1 Boneless pork butt roast (Jaime says it has to be BUTT roast)
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup salsa (any kind)

Combine listed ingredients and cook in a crock pot on low for 6-7 hours. (Don't let it go all day like a roast, it'll get dry.) Shread pork before serving. It's just that easy!!!!

Here's the sauce to put on the top once you've put the pork into a tortilla:

1 1/3 Cup sour cream
3/4 Cup mayo
1 packet Ranch dressing mix
2 cloves garlic
4 Tbsp Green salsa verde
Juice of one lime
1/4 tsp Tabasco

1 bunch of cilantro--Leaves only!

Put everything in blender until smooth.
Garnish burritos with cheese and beans. Muy delicioso!!!!

Raygon's Thai Lettuce Wraps

This is one delicious recipe. I got it from my friend Raygon who cooks mostly organic and VERY healthy. These taste so good they have become a staple in my house. She has a recipe for homemade peanut sauce if you want to check it out. www.mealicious.blogspot.com/2009/08/thai-lettuce-wraps.html

I stole her picture ;)

3-4 chicken breasts, minced half red onion, finely chopped
2 cups shredded green cabbage
1 cup shredded carrot (or more if desired)
2 cloves garlic, minced
soy sauce (I used amino acids instead), or peanut sauce, or BOTH
lettuce cups (cut ice burg in half and peel cups apart) wash and chill ahead of time

Saute onion in hot oil until tender, add chicken and cook til no longer pink. Add the rest of the ingredients, except sauce, and saute about 2 minutes. Dont over cook the veggies, you just want to get them tender, not mushy. sprinkle with sauce for flavor. Scoop into chilled lettuce cups and enjoy.
