Clean Out The Fridge Cooking: Pork and Summer Squash Tacos with Salsa Verde

Another good use of leftovers here – in this case leftover salsa verde and leftover roast pork. I served this with a simple, thrown-together salad of kidney beans, corn, cilantro and sherry vinegar.

My phone’s acting up – I’ll add a photo later.

About a pound leftover roast pork (cooked on the rarer side), cut into cubes

2 tbsp taco seasoning (I used Penzey’s chicken taco) or your favorite Mexican spices

cumin

paprika

garlic powder

salt and pepper

1 summer squash, cut into little sticks

1/2 an onion, sliced

1 slightly hot green pepper, sliced

flour tortillas

salsa verde

For garnishes: shredded cheese, avocado, Greek yogurt

a bit of olive oil

1/2 cup water

Heat one pan with a little oil. Add pork and sautee a minute. Add taco seasoning and water. Simmer on low.

While that’s simmering, heat some oil in another pan. Add squash, onions and peppers, along with a bit of cumin, garlic powder and paprika. Sautee until a little charred and cooked through.

In each tortilla, add half meat and half vegetables (or whatever ratio you like), plus desired garnishes.
