This is a family favorite I make every year at Christmas. I made them once with duck and all of my nieces ask for them now annually. I have also made it somewhat heart healthy with the lowfat ingredients but use what you prefer.

Cook’s Note

Options

  • Variations can be made as to how much filling, cheese, spices or sauce you want to use. For example sometimes I use a green enchilada sauce or use chicken and rice instead of the pork. I use a Pork loin roast when making the carnitas to keep saturated fats down. You do not have to use my lowfat options in the recipe but this makes it more of a heart healthy option for those of us who are watching saturated fat intakes.
