Café Rio Pork
6lbs pork
1 16oz bottle of salsa

Place pork in crock pot and fill half way up the pork with water. Cook on High for 5 hours. Drain off water. Cut pork in thirds. Mix together sauce ingredients and put on top of pork. Cook an additional 3 hours on high. Shred pork with forks. I leave on low until ready to serve.
Cilantro Lime Rice
2 cups long grain rice
1 bunch cilantro
juice of 2 limes
4 cloves garlic
Chop garlic and cilantro. Heat 2 Tbs. of oil in a skillet. Add rice and all chopped ingredients and sauté until starts to get golden. Put 4 cups of water and lime juice in a rice cooker. Add rice mixture to the rice cooker and cook according to directions.
Pinto Beans
Rinsed and boiled in water, season to taste
Salad Dressing! (the best part!)
3 fresh tomatillos-cut into quarters
1 pkg ranch dressing-dry
1 cup Mayo
1/3 to ½ cup buttermilk
1 cup fresh cilantro

Putting it all together!
Put out some nice mixed greens, spinach, lettuce, etc. Dice up tomatoes, onions, or any other toppings you like. Shred some cheese.
The salad is layered starting with the lettuce, then rice, then pinto beans, meat, toppings and dressing.
