Recipe #47 Pork Chile Verde

I can't believe my yearly experiment is almost over.  Started this at the beginning of the year out of a New Year's resolution and this may be the only resolution I have ever kept.  I didn't know anything about blogging, and seriously still don't know much.  I thought that I would have a lot of interaction, but most people couldn't figure out how to add comments, or were too busy, or were just "stalkers."  Many people would comment about the blog to me in person - they enjoyed the blog, but never commented.  This recipe is really a two-for-one.  I made the Pork Chili Verde and also Pork tacos.  I found the recipe on Pinterest and it was originally posted by Heather Christo Cooks.   One thing I learned this year is that there are a lot of food blogs out there and they are much more sophisticated than mine.  I also discovered Pinterest this year and for a food junkie and recipe collector like me, it's been pure heaven!  I made this one pretty much as is. (the kidney beans showed up twice in the blog, couldn't get rid of the extra pic) Happy Cooking!
