Pork Tacos or TostadasA tostada is a flat tortilla, with toppings; a taco is a folded tortilla filled with a variety of foods such as grated cheese, shredded lettuce and meat sauce. Use this meat sauce as a basis for either and let each person top or fill their own taco or tostada. Packaged crisp tortillas can be served cold or warm; warm in a 300ºF oven for 5 minutes. Soft tortillas should be fried one at a time in a skillet in hot vegetable oil for 30 seconds or until golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels and keep warm in a 300ºF oven.
Skillet Pork and PastaThis is a favorite dinner with my children. I use this recipe as a base and often add one or two of the following: chopped sweet red or green pepper, kernel corn, kidney beans, green beans, chopped carrot, fresh herbs and chopped parsley.
