Easy AF Pulled Pork Bowl (Because Moms Don’t Have Time for Complicated)

Some nights, I want to feel like I'm serving up a Pinterest-worthy dinner but without the actual effort.

Enter: the Pulled Pork Bowl. It looks like something you would order at a trendy spot, but it's basically just throwing leftovers and toppings into a bowl. That's the kind of cooking I can get behind.

The kids think the green drizzle makes it a restaurant food.

Ingredients (a.k.a. stuff you need)

For the Bowl:

• 2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or cauliflower rice if you're pretending to be healthy)
• 1 cup cooked lentils (or beans, because moms improvise)
• 2 cups shredded pulled pork (rotisserie chicken works too if you're lazy AF)
• 1 cup diced tomatoes
• 2 green onions, chopped

For the Avocado Cilantro Sauce:

• 1 bunch fresh cilantro
• 1 ripe avocado
• 1½ cup Greek yogurt (or mayo, or sour cream, whatever you've got)
• 2-3 jalapenos (seeded if you're a wimp, whole if you like chaos)
• 1 clove garlic
• Salt + pepper to taste
• Water to thin

Directions (a.k.a. how to throw it together)

Make the sauce: Toss all sauce ingredients in a Ninja or blender. Blend until smooth. Add water a little at a time until you've got a drizzly consistency. Taste and adjust, add more salt, jalapeno, or lime if you're feeling fancy.

Build your bowl: Start with rice, then lentils, then pile on pulled pork.

Add diced tomatoes and green onions.

Drizzle generously with your avocado cilantro sauce so it looks like you actually gave a damn.
