Chalupas

My friend Emma has raved about her Chalupa recipe for years...I finally tried it and it is delish. I love Cafe Rio's sweet pork recipe. However, this isn't sweet and is very different from it but still delish. Hope you try it and love it too.

Night before soak dry beans. I used 1 cup white and 1 cup black and added enough water to cover the beans. Use how much you want and whatever kind you have. Or use canned beans and don't worry about remembering the night before to let them soak.

2 lb pork roast-cover with water in crock pot
Add:
1 lb pinto beans
2 cloves garlic
2 Tbs chili powder
1/4 c picante sauce
2 tsp. salt
1 Tbs cumin
1 tsp oregano

Cover and cook in crock pot on low heat 6-8 hours. Serve on bed of crushed tortilla chips or taco shell. Garnish with chopped onion, tomatoes, lettuce, grated cheese, avocado, olives, lime, sour cream, salsa etc.

Didn't take a picture but use your imaginations!
