Quick, easy, and crowd pleasing is how I would describe this dish. It literally take less than 5 minutes to pull this recipe together in your crock pot and then just set it and forget it. If you are not a fan of pork, simply swap it out with 2 pounds of chicken thighs.
Serves 6

 2 to 3.5 lb. pork shoulder or pork loin roast
 1 (16 ounce) jar of mild salsa Verde
 1 (4 ounce) jar of mild fire roasted chilies
 Juice of 1/2 a lime
 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped, plus more for garnish
 1/2 tsp ground cumin
 salt and pepper, to taste
1

Place all ingredients in slow cooker. Cover and cook on low heat 6-8 hours or high heat 4-5hours ( pork should be tender and easy to shred). 30 minutes before serving, remove pork and shred using 2 forks. Return shredded pork to crock pot and cook an additional 30 minutes.

2

Serve over cauliflower rice or in lettuce cups topped with your favorite salsa and guacamole.
