Pork Carnitas
My e-maginary friend Brenda shared this recipe with me and 200 of our closest homeschooling friends. Brenda makes me laugh, she’s married to a tough fire fighter and she’s a 49er fan. Doesn’t get much better than that! As a bonus, this recipe is quick, easy, tastes great and makes a ton.

This looks yummy (and super easy, which always makes me happy). Once I have Food on Friday back up next Friday, I’d love for you to link this.
