I needed something different and this was just right! Adding the coleslaw and avocado is something I wouldn’t have thought of. We loved this meal!

How to make ground pork tacos (step-by-step)
The simple pork taco seasoning
We love using our homemade taco seasoning for these pork tacos. It’s a simple mix of seasonings you’ll have in your pantry. Make a big batch, and then you’ll have leftovers for next time.
Plus, you’ll skip the icky additives in store-bought packets of seasoning blends.

Quick 25-Minute Ground Pork Tacos with Slaw
Ingredients
- 8 grain free tortillas, (we love Siete or Whole Foods brand almond flour tortillas)
For the slaw:
- 2 cups coleslaw mix, (or just shredded cabbage and carrots)
- 1 lime, juice of
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1/2 avocado, cubed
- sea salt and pepper, to taste
For the taco meat:
- 2 lbs ground pork
- 3 tbsp homemade taco seasoning
Optional toppings:
- Tomatoes or salsa
- Chipotle aioli
- Cilantro
Instructions
- Place all of the coleslaw ingredients in a small mixing bowl and mix them up until the avocado gets a little broken down but stays mostly chunky. Set aside until you’re ready to plate.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and ground pork to pan. Break it up with a spatula and continue to cook.
- When pork is almost done, add taco seasoning to pan and mix to combine. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally until pork is fully cooked and there are some brown bits.
- Once pork is done, prepare taco shells as desired and layer your ground pork and then coleslaw right on top of your tortillas. Garnish your favorite toppings, like salsa and cilantro. We also like to add a dollop of our chipotle aioli.
I needed something different and this was just right.. I used ground pork and seasoned it the way I usually do, but adding the coleslaw and Avacado is something I wouldn’t have thought of.. we loved this meal
Glad you enjoyed it Michelle!
