Ingredients
For the grilled pork:
- 1 pork loin
- 1 Tablespoon taco seasoning
- 1/2 Tablespoon paprika
For the butternut squash:
- 2 cups butternut squash cubed
- 14 ounces black beans drained and rinsed
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- salt and pepper to taste
For the avocado sour cream:
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 medium size avocado ripe
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- Other:
- cojita cheese crumbled
- Mango Salsa
- 6 flour tortillas
Instructions
- Bring pork loin to room temperature. Mix together the taco seasoning and paprika and rub them all over the pork loin. Grill over medium heat until the center is barely cooked but still tender. Let it sit for a few minutes off the grill, then sliced it into bite-size pieces.
- In a large fry pan, melt the butter over medium heat and stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Then add the butternut squash and toss to coat. When the squash begins to soften, add the drained and rinsed black beans. Cook together until squash is fork tender.
- Remove the avocado from the pit and shell into a medium size bowl. Add sour cream and lime juice. Blend with a hand mixer until creamy.
