Mike's Carnitas Taco Enchilada Fajita Chimmie Taquito & Burritos
Before you jump to Mike's Carnitas Taco Enchilada Fajita Chimmie Taquito & Burritos recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Deciding on Healthy and balanced Fast Food.
Almost every “get healthy” and “weight loss” document you study will tell you to skip the drive through and make all of your meals yourself. This is certainly very good guidance. Occasionally, though, the last thing you choose is to have to make meals from scratch. Once in a while you only want to visit the drive through while you are on your way home and end the day. There is zero reason that you shouldn’t be able to do this once in a while and be free of the guilt usually associated with “diet slips”. This can be done because lots of the popular fast food places are trying to make their menus healthier now. Here’s how it is possible to eat healthfully when you are at a fast food spot.
Select water, juice or maybe milk as a beverage. Choosing a big soft drink as your beverage gives hundreds of poor calories to your meal. One helping of pop is eight ounces. That portion normally is made up of at least a hundred calories and more than a few tablespoons of sugar. Most fast food soft drink sizes start out at twenty ounces. Thirty ounces, however, is a lot more common. This ensures that just purchasing a soft drink will add cupfulls of sugar and thousands of empty calories to your diet regime. It is much healthier to choose milk, juice and also standard water.
Basic logic states that the best way to lose pounds and get healthy is to ban fast food from your diet altogether. While this is usually recommended all you need to do is make a few good decisions and visiting the drive through isn’t anything to worry about–when you do it in moderation. Once in a while, allowing someone else cook dinner is just what you need. If you decide on healthy things, the remorse usually associated with hitting the drive through shouldn’t be so bad.

Grilled Carnitas Fajitas pictured. Just fry sliced bell peppers and onions and top.
Oversized Carnitas Taquitos. Just bake them for 20 minutes at 350° or, until browned and crispy. Or, deep fry in oil until fully browned.

If opting to use a fresh tenderloin or shoulder, brine it in 1/4 cup salt, 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tbsp ground cumin, 1 tbsp chili powder and ice water for 12 hours. Pull, pat dry, season and place in a crockpot for 8 hours + fat side up. Add beef stock and seasonings to pot as well.
If you're looking for an effort free way to season your fresh pork while in the crockpot - go to your local Carniceria [only] and ask for their best recommendation. Purchase two packets.
Fork shread or chunk your fresh Carnitas and allow them to rest in their juices until ready to fry. Save your juices and vegetables grin pot to make a tasty salsa.
Add drained shredded pork from crockpot and place into boiling lard.
Fry until pork is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
Or, if you're interested in an even easier way out of making Carnitas - head to your local Mercado [only] and ask the butcher for the best pre-brined and pre-seasoned Carnita tenderloin they have. You'll typically bake at 350° for 2.5 hours in a sealed bag.
Again, fork shread or chunk your pre-seasoned Carnitas and allow them to soak in their own juices until serving. Add your favorite red salsa if you find the flavor to be too smokey for your taste.
Chop and mix everything together in your Stacked Refried Beans section. Heat in microwave, mix, heat again, seal tightly and do not refrigerate.
Place beans in 6 to 12" fresh warmed flour tortillas.
Wrap your burritos, chimichangas and/or enchiladas up tightly. You can also Panini your burritos.
This is a crazy easy Mexican smothering sauce trick that'll take you less than two minutes tops. Even the Pioneer Woman caught on to our little secret here in NM and employs this easy recipie regularly in her own kitchen. These are some of the best Enchilada sauces out there. Just open, mix heat and serve.
Hatch Green Chiles are a must.
