A recipe that is quick and simple. In fact, I found this through using leftovers. We eat it many times a month because my large family of 7 like it so much. Making the toppings ready allows even the youngest child to participate in the preparation. a fantastic way to use up any leftover meat.

Reviews
I used taco shells and it was good
It worked well and was fairly easy to make. The only change I would make would be to season the pork more than I had because it turns out a bit bland.
Good way to use of leftover pulled pork. I used fresh jalapeno instead of bell pepper due to personal preference but that is the only change I made.
