Kalua Pork

 Kalua Pork


Ingredients:
  • 7 lb bone in pork butt or shoulder
  • 1 Tbsp liquid smoke
  • 1 tbsp kosher salt

Directions:
  • Place pork roast fat side up in your slow cooker. 
  • Rub all over with Liquid Smoke and salt. 
  • Cook on low for 9-10 hours. 
  • Shred meat in the slow cooker so the meat can sit in the juice until it is served.  
  • Serve hot.

This is an easy meat to make, it just needs time to cook.  Throw it in in the morning and it'll be ready for dinner.  Serve with Coconut Rice, Hawaiian slaw and Hawaiian rolls. You can make shave ice or Dole Whip for dessert!  We bought a Little Snowie shave ice machine and it is seriously the best!  The flavors you can purchase through Little Snowie are delicious and easy to store and make. And, the ice it makes is so fluffy and soft, it is just like shave ice in Hawaii.  We have even make snowballs with it and had a snowball fight here in Arizona.  I know, desperate times call for desperate measures!  Ha, Ha!

Salmon Tacos with Cilantro Lime Dressing

 I love Mexican food.  I'm pretty sure if I had to choose one cuisine to eat for the rest of my life it would be Mexican.  These tacos were born from necessity and my love of tacos.  My family has downsized from 6 people to 4 people as my oldest children have moved out to go to college. When I make a whole Costco Salmon, I now have enough leftovers for another meal!  Not wanting this delicious salmon to go to waste, I incorporated it into tacos the next day and everyone absolutely loved them!   Photo credit: https://www.eatyourselfskinny.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/cilantro-lime-tacos-2.jpg Here are the ingredients for the tacos: Lemon pepper dill salmon - I make this the day before for a meal and then use the leftovers for these tacos.  Flake and fry the salmon in a frying pan on medium heat until it gets a little crispy.  You don't need to add oil because the salmon has a lot of natural oil in it.  You're just warming up the salmon,...

Rosemary Focaccia Bread

My family's favorite bread recipe!  It is so delicious, when it is cooking, the smell spreads through the house calling everyone to the kitchen.  The best part is that it's super easy to make!  That is why I put it in this blog.  Only favorite recipes are allowed in this blog, and part of being a favorite is that it isn't so painful to make again and again.  My friend Mina gave me this recipe and made it with me to show me how it's done.  I will forever be grateful for her.  She is an amazing cook and friend.   Rosemary Focaccia Bread First, Grab a large mixing bowl.  Then turn your tap on to the hottest setting and let the water get as hot it can.  Put 2 cups of hot tap water into the bowl.   Dissolve 2 Tbs. of honey into the warm water.   Add 1 Tbs. of yeast and stir it into the water/honey mixture.  Set it aside.  If you're really interested in watching the yeast grow, you can stare at it, 'cause I'm...

Kalua Pork Tacos with Pineapple Slaw

 You can't have too many tacos!  When your main dish can be made into tacos the next day, you do it!  I made my Hawaiian meal with Kalua pork, rice and pineapple slaw and reconfigured it into tacos the next day and everyone loved them! I need to take a better picture, but these had great flavor and might've been better than the original meal.                                             Kalua Pork Tacos with Pineapple Slaw Kalua Pork  - Use the leftovers and fry it in a pan until it gets crispy in places.  There is enough oil in the pork, just heat the pan up and let it crisp. Pineapple Slaw - It tastes great the day after.  I used leftovers from the night before. Corn cut off the cobb- I fried the corn in a pan and added cilantro.  It was amazing! Corn tortillas- I fry them in a little oil on high until slightly browned. Cotija or Feta cheese (...
