with Monterey Jack & Cilantro Citrus Slaw
We firmly believe taco night should be treated like a holiday—one that should be celebrated at LEAST once a week, if not more. If you agree, you’ve got to add this Southwest version to your repertoire. Spiced ground pork and onion are piled into steamy tortillas with Monterey Jack cheese, a tangy cilantro citrus slaw, and sour cream. Taco ’bout a killer meal.

Wash and dry produce.
Halve, peel, and finely dice onion. Finely chop cilantro. Quarter lemon.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and a pinch of salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened and lightly browned, 2-3 minutes.
Add pork* and Southwest Spice Blend. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. TIP: If there’s excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out.
While pork cooks, in a large bowl, combine cabbage, mayonnaise, half the cilantro, juice from half the lemon (whole lemon for 4 servings), 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4), and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Stir Tex-Mex paste into pan with pork mixture until fully coated. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Remove pan from heat.
Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.
Divide tortillas between plates and fill with pork filling, Monterey Jack, slaw, sour cream, and remaining cilantro. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.
