Pulled Pork & Sweet Potato Burritos

A modification of my mother's to-die-for burritos. She developed her recipe from the memory of a burrito place in San Francisco. I am dying to someday find that place...

Ingredients:

-Pork (about 1/2 a pound)

-Greek yogurt or sour cream (1-3 cups depending on how fattening you want these) (*Note: I lived in Greece once upon a time and tried to make the original version of these burritos. The recipe called for sour cream and I could only find Greek yogurt. The replacement turned out to be phenomenal.)

-Salt, pepper, paprika, cilantro to taste (go heavy on the cilantro)

-1 large onion

-Garlic to taste

-Olive oil (I practically bath in the stuff and can't imagine cooking without it. Maybe this is Greece's influence?)

-3 large sweet potatoes

-6 (or more!) burrito blankets.

-Cheddar cheese

Optional

-Rice (I use basmati)

-Salsa

-Beans (refried or black)

Directions:

-Slow cook the pork all day. Or until it is falling apart. (I'm not a huge meat-eater and I like this way of cooking pork because you can easily separate the fat from the meat.)

-Bake the sweet potatoes at 400 degrees F until soft. (Remember to poke holes in them before you put them in the oven.) (Wait until these are done or almost done before going on to the next step.)

-Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (or maybe it is already hot from the sweet potatoes? You'll have to deal with this on your own.)

-Saute onions (chopped) and garlic in olive oil (Seriously don't use another kind of oil). Do this in a wok or wide pot. Add some paprika, salt and pepper. Perhaps even throw in some red pepper flakes. My hubby said this would be better if it was spicier (I didn't use anything hot) but I'm not sure the hotness would go well with the sweetness of the sweet potato.

-When the potatoes done, peel them and chop them finely.

-When the onions are translucent add the sweet potatoes. Stir constantly. Add a dab of Greek yogurt (or sour cream). Let cook for about 10 minutes.

-Remove the pulled pork from slow cooker (if you haven't done so already) and separate it (or maybe you call this "pulling pork"? Take all the yicky fat away.

-Add the cilantro and pulled pork to the onion/garlic/sweet potato mixture.

-Add a little bit of salsa (optional) to the mixture and some more Greek yogurt (or sour cream). Keep adding the Greek yogurt (or sour cream) until you feel it tastes right. (Yeah, that's how I cook. Taste it. Otherwise how do you know if it is delicious?

-Cook this until the sweet potatoes are soft.

-Take a burrito blanket and put beans, rice (both optional), cheese (sliced) and pork mixture in. Fold and place in an oiled glass baking dish. Do this with all the burrito blankets. Cover with leftover mixture and cheese. Cover with aluminum foil.

-Bake for 30-45 minutes or until cheese on top it melted and burritos are crispy but not burned.

-Watch your family/friends/self melt from deliciousness overload.
