1 Pork tenderloin (We bought a huge one from Sam's Club and cut it in 3rds so we froze the rest for future meals.)
1 jar Herdez Verde Salsa
Equal amount of water.
1 can RoTel Tomotoes & Chilis. (We ended up buying generic because they didn't have RoTel but make sure to look at the label to see what it contains. Some brands had nasty fillers in them)
Butter Lettuce
Avocado
Put meat, salsa, water, and RoTel chilis in crock pot set to low. Go to work. When you get home pull the pork out. Shred the pork and throw back into the pot.
When ready for dinner use butter lettuce as a shell and add meat, and avocado slice. I also have a jar of Herdez Regular Salsa I will add to mine. Herdez seems to be one of the only clean brands of salsa here. We ended up buying generic tomatoes & chilis because they didn't have RoTel. Make sure to look at the label to see what it contains. Some brands had nasty fillers in them and since I couldn't look at a can of RoTel I don't know if it is an offender.

Chili
We already used to make this recipe anyway but we ate it with noodles, sour cream, cheese, and crackers. I will miss the yummy crackers but this recipe is seriously outstanding. I grew up hating Chili until Adam's Aunt made us this. We have tweaked the recipe over the years but essentially this recipe is A.MAZ.ING.
1 onion chopped
1.5-2lbs ground beef
1-2 ribeyes or filets cut in cubes
1 lb pork chirizo
1 bunch cilantro
2 cans whole tomatoes
1 box of Swanson's Beef Stock (don't get the broth it has a bunch of stuff you don't want in it)
2-3 whole Jalepenos cut up ( we leave the membrane and seeds intact and also quarter them)
1 t garlic powder
1/4 cup chili powder
3-5 bay leaves
2-3 cinnamon sticks
Brown the ground beef, chirizo, and onions together in a giant stock pot then add everything else except the steak. Set stove to low. Let simmer for 3-3.5 hours. Put in the steak. Let simmer for 1-2 hours more. Remove bay leaves and cinnamon sticks. It makes a lot. If you don't want to eat it every night for a week then you could put it into different containers and freeze.
Serve with a side of veggies.
