I wish I could just say this was sooooo good and then stop. But I won’t.
This was actually my most favorite dinner of the week so far. Ok, it’s Monday, I get it but this was awesome. And it really took no time because my pulled pork was leftover from a recipe I made last week. I had a small amount left so I made this pulled pork and sriracha guacamole grilled cheese. If you want to check out the amazing pulled pork recipe I made in the Instant Pot, go here!
