Sunday Slow Cooker Recipe: Barbecued Fajitas from Pillsbury







This week's Slow Cooker recipe is actually from the Pillsbury website, and I haven't made these before, but boy do they look good and it looks really easy.  Perfect for a summer's day or even in the fall during those busy school weeks.

I am definitely making these for my family and will let you know how they turn out.  Again, if you have fast & easy recipes you'd like to share with other teachers, please email me at utahteachersmarket@gmail.com or leave it as a comment below.  Thanks!



Slow Cooker Barbecued Pulled-Pork Fajitas


2 1/2 pound pork boneless loin roast, trimmed of fat (or a 2 1/2 pound beef boneless chuck roast)
1 med. onion, thinly sliced
2 cups barbecue sauce
3/4 cup Old El Paso Thick 'n' Chunky Salsa
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 bag (1 pound) frozen stir-fry bell peppers and onions
1/2 teaspoon salt
18 flour tortillas (8 to 10 inches in diameter)

Shredded cheese, guacamole and sour cream if desired

Step 1 
Place pork (or beef roast) in 3- to 4-quart slow cooker. Place onion on top. Mix barbecue sauce, salsa, chili powder and cumin; pour over pork and onion. 

Step 2 
Cover and cook on low heat setting 8 to 10 hours.  

Step 3 
Remove pork from cooker; place on cutting board. Shred pork, using 2 forks. Return pork to cooker and mix well. Stir in stir-fry vegetables and salt. Increase heat setting to high. Cover and cook 30 minutes or until mixture is hot and vegetables are tender. 

Step 4
Using slotted spoon to remove pork mixture from cooker, fill each tortilla with 1/2 cup pork mixture. Fold one end of tortilla up about 1 inch over filling; fold right and left sides over folded end, overlapping. Fold remaining end down. Serve with cheese, guacamole and sour cream.
