How to make Pulled Pork Bowls

1. Prepare the green chili pork tenderloin. Place diced onions, jalapenos and garlic in the bottom of a slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine ground cumin, salt and pepper to season the pork. Rub this seasoning mixture on a pork tenderloin, then place it in the slow cooker. Add diced green chilies, chicken broth and lime juice to the slow cooker.
   • Quick Tip! Did you know that a pork tenderloin is as lean as a chicken breast? It's the most tender cut of pork and great for making healthy bowls with lean protein!
2. Slow cook the pork tenderloin. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-5 hours. After the pork has finished slow cooking, use two forks or meat claws to pull the pork tenderloin apart in the slow cooker.
3. Prepare the bowls. Prepare Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice or Mexican Cauliflower Rice. Divide the cauliflower rice between four bowls, then top with the pulled pork, sliced avocado, sliced jalapenos and fresh cilantro. If you're not dairy free or on the whole30 diet, you can also add some crumbled cotija cheese on top!

Easy Pulled Pork Bowl Modifications

Make It Vegan

Make It Low Carb

• This bowl is already low carb at 11 net carbs per bowl.

Meal Prep It

• For storage: prepare the pulled pork and cauliflower rice. Separate the cauliflower rice between four storage containers, top with the pulled pork. Place the sliced jalapenos and fresh cilantro in separate small plastic bags and into the storage containers. Wrap the avocado in plastic wrap and place it in the storage containers.
• To reheat and eat: Remove the avocado, jalapenos and cilantro from the storage containers. Place the pulled pork and cauliflower rice in the microwave for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Remove from the microwave and top with the sliced avocado, fresh cilantro and jalapenos.

Add A Protein

• This bowl is already high in protein from the pulled pork tenderloin. Each bowl contains 40 grams of protein, so no additional protein source is needed.
