From My Kitchen...

The BEST Tacos you'll ever have!
-2lbs. ground pork (don’t use gr. beef- it doesn’t taste the same)
-2 onions (med.-large)
-aprox. 1 Tbsp. oil

Brown the pork and chopped onions together in oil...Drain.
Add 1 can of crushed tomatoes (lg. can) and about 1/3 can of water.

Season with:
-2 tsp. garlic powder (more or less to taste)
-1 tsp. black pepper
-2 tsp. salt
-1-2 tsp. cumin powder
-1 tsp. red pepper (more or less to taste)

Simmer for about an hour, and add water if necessary.
Fill tortilla shells and garnish to your liking!

*Top with: lettuce shreds, diced tomatos, shredded cheddar cheese,
sour cream, chopped scallions,jalepenos and/or whatever else you like.

** I like to lightly fry the tortillas in a small amount of hot oil,
and drain them on paper toweling rather than just heating them.
Doing this gives the tacos a totally different taste.


How about a little desert?
