This is a great meal to feel a lot of people. I have used 3-4 pork chops, or a pork roast. Add whatever toppings you like, and voila! A meal for many! Serve with fresh fruit salad, warm wheat torillas and spanish rice (still working on a good recipe for this. Have one? Let me know!).
Put 3-4 pork chops or a whole pork roast (serves 4-5 adults) in crockpot about 5 hours on medium and pour Mesquite marinade over top (I have used Lawrys, but am looking for a homemade one so I can get away from the high fructose corn syrup in the store bought ones) and walk away for a few hours! Then when it falls apart, shred it in the crock pot so all of the meat can soak in the marinade and turn on warm until ready to serve.
Serve with wheat tortillas and...
olives
guacamole (onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, seasoning salt, lemon juice mixed in
with 2-3 avocadoes)
lettuce
shredded cheese
black beans
pico de gallo
Pico de Gallo
Mix together in a bowl a few hours before serving to let flavors soak together:
1 large tomato diced small
handful of cilantro cut up small
couple slices of red onion diced
sprinkle garlic salt or about 1/2 tsp minced garlic
dash of salt and pepper
Want it to have a little kick? Add about half of a small diced jalapeno (seeds out)

My Spanish Rice Recipe:
Add 1/2 c chopped onion
add 1/2 c chopped bell pepper (I use red, yellow & green to make it colorful!)
Saute in a tablespoon of olive oil or butter until tender.
Add 1 c rice and stir until golden brown...then I add 1 can of rotel tomatoes w/chiles and a cup of chicken broth. Simmer for about 20 minutes. This is the best spanish rice.
