    Recipe Introduction


    Prep: 30 min., Cook: 11 hrs., Bake: 5 min. This pork-and-bean mixture is versatile. Serve it spooned over cornbread or rolled up burrito style in flour tortillas. Make hearty nachos, quesadillas, or tacos too. It can even be used as a meaty addition to huevos rancheros (fried corn tortillas topped with fried eggs and salsa).


    List of Ingredients




    1 pound dried pinto beans
    1 (3 1/2-pound) bone-in pork loin roast
    2 (4-ounce) cans chopped green chiles
    2 garlic cloves, chopped
    1 tablespoon chili powder
    2 teaspoons salt
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 (32-ounce) box chicken broth
    1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles with lime juice and cilantro
    8 taco salad shells
    1 small head iceberg lettuce, shredded
    Toppings: shredded Monterey Jack cheese, pickled jalapeño slices, halved grape tomatoes, sour cream, chopped avocado

    Recipe



    Rinse and sort beans according to package directions.
    Place pinto beans in a 6-quart slow cooker; add roast and next 6 ingredients. Pour chicken broth evenly over top of roast.

    Cover and cook on HIGH 1 hour; reduce to LOW, and cook 9 hours. Or, cover and cook on HIGH 6 hours. Remove bones and fat from roast; pull roast into large pieces with two forks. Stir in diced tomatoes and green chiles. Cook, uncovered, on HIGH 1 more hour or until liquid is slightly thickened.

    Heat taco salad shells according to package directions; place shredded lettuce evenly into shells. Spoon about 1 cup pork-and-bean mixture into each shell using a slotted spoon. Serve with desired toppings.

    Note: For testing purposes only, we used RO*TEL Mexican Festival tomatoes and a Rival Recipe Smart-Pot slow cooker. Times may vary depending on the slow cooker used.
