I was going to make pork chops and then pull the meat to make lettuce wrap, but since I burned one side of the chops while grilling them, I decided to just pull them and make the wraps instead.
First, pull your pork using two forks to pull it apart. Then add a can of rinsed and drained black beans, salsa, a diced tomato, a can of diced green chilies, cumin, salt, lime juice, and garlic powder; mix it all together and refrigerate while you prepare your lettuce. Rinse your Romaine lettuce leaves and tear off the really fibrous ends; discard them because they are useless due to the fact that they are so fibrous. Once your lettuce is rinsed and patted dry, put a scoop of the pork mixture into the center, put a little sour cream or Greek yogurt on top, and fold the leafy end of the lettuce over.
Will was really funny because when he first looked at it, he complained that this meal was a little too experimental for his tastes. Then he bit into and learned that you can't judge a meal by its appearance. I enjoyed it, but I think next time I will add in some cheese just to add some extra flavor. This is really easy to make vegetarian or vegan simply because all you have to do is take out the meat, maybe add a few extra vegetables, and voila! You have an amazing meal at your fingertips.
