salsa verde pork |

Hi there! We had a very merry Christmas in our house. How about you?

Hunter was definitely spoiled with lots of clothes and many new toys to play with.

And a bouncy red bull to ride.

I feel like there’s a toy overload upstairs now. Time to move a pile to the nursery for him to play with down there.

We had both sets of parents, 3 brothers, 1 sister and 1 nephew over. Not all at once, but still, I think that’s the most people we’ve had in our house at the same time. Thankfully it wasn’t too crowded. Cozy

I planned an easy meal to make on Christmas day, crockpot salsa verde pork. The selection for week 2 in my year of crockpot recipes.

I just threw the 5 ingredients in the crockpot when I woke up and it was waiting for me by the afternoon. A quick shred of the pork, prepping of the burrito fixings and lunch/dinner was served!
