Simple Carnitas
I am usually nervous about trying recipes that don't have lots of reviews, but BOY am I glad I made this! I doubled the ingredients (slightly less than double the salt), used a 7 pound boston butt, crock pot on high for 8 hours and O. M. Goodness! I totally agree with the previous reviewer about the blend of flavors. . .so interesting and pleasing. . .so versatile. . .going to freeze the leftovers for some quick oven enchiladas. Marinated onions and peppers in mojo sauce and sauteed them for fajitas. Thanks so much for a great recipe! I've had some bad luck lately, but my bad streak is over!

Dee's Roast Pork for Tacos
5 stars for EASY, TASTE, VALUE, and VERSATILITY. I put this in the crock pot, following the recipe exactly (other than the cooking method). It tasted WONDERFUL. I used a Boston Butt that I got on sale at Bloom for $.88/pound (yes, $.88!) We had it as taco meat, as enchiladas, as taco salad, and just by itself with some cilatro and diced tomato on top. Spring for the fresh cilantro. . .it really bring out the flavor of this recipe. Passing this on to everyone I know! Thanks!

Super-Delicious Zuppa Toscana
Ok, I've made this twice in one week, and this time I made a double batch. I suppose it's not the HEALTHIEST thing for us to be eating this much of, but that should tell you why I gave it 5 stars. I made it just as the recipe said, except I left out the greens (personal taste). Also, I served it with grated parm on top, and that added a lot to the flavor. Thanks for the recipe!
