Ingredients
  

  • large flour tortillas
  • olive oil
  • cooked pulled pork* {I used meat from a pork butt} or pork tenderloin cut into small pieces
  • BBQ sauce** {any kind you like}
  • fresh pineapple chunks or canned pineapple chunks or tidbits drained
  • snow peas
  • cashews
  • English cucumber {the long ones that are wrapped in plastic}
  • shredded lettuce cabbage or slaw mix, optional
  • Lime Crema**

Lime Crema

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt or more to taste

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 350, wrap pulled pork in foil and reheat.
  • Heat enough olive oil in a large skillet to coat the bottom. Add tortillas, one at a time and cook until golden, turn over and cook the other side. Repeat with as many tortillas as needed. Drain tortillas on paper towels. Wrap in foil and keep warm.
  • Trim pointy ends of snow peas and cut in half. Rinse and wrap in a clean kitchen towel. Microwave for 1 minute.
  • Cut cucumber into slices and quarter them.
  • Arrange pea pods, cucumber pieces, pineapple, cashews and optional shredded lettuce or cabbage on a large platter or in a divided dish. Set warm pork, BBQ sauce, Lime Crema, and tortillas next to toppings. Diners can serve themselves and assemble their own taco creations.

Lime Crema

  • Mix sour cream with lime juice and add 1/2 tsp garlic salt.  Taste and add more garlic salt if desired
