Lightly sauteed ground pork is simmered with grated red potatoes and spooned into taco shells for a pleasing alternative to ground beef. Top with lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream, and add a dollop of salsa to tickle your taste buds.
INGREDIENTS (for 8 servings):
- 1 pound ground pork
- 3 red potatoes
- salt and pepper to taste
- 8 taco shells
- 1 cup iceberg lettuce, shredded
- 1 cup chopped fresh tomato
- 1/4 cup sour cream
PREPARATION:
Place ground pork into a large skillet. Lightly brown, but don't completely cook. Shred the potatoes like hash browns. Add shredded potatoes to pork, mix together and add just enough water to cover the bottom of the skillet. Cover skillet and let simmer until potatoes are soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Spoon pork mixture into shells and garnish with lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream and any other toppings desired.
