Retreat Recipe

Cafe Rio Pork
1 pork loin
2 cups pace medium salsa
2 cups brown sugar
Put in your slow cooker for 6-8 hours on low. Shred and let sit for one more hour.

Lime Rice
3 cups of rice
3 cups of water
1/2 onion
1/2 bunch cilantro
1 can green chilies
4 t garlic- minced
4 t chicken bouillon
1/2 t salt
1 T butter
4 T lime juice
Blend/Chop onion, cilantro, and chilies in a food processor (or you can just chop onion and cilantro by hand). Then put all ingredients in with the rice and cook; either on stove or in a rice cooker. I did it in my rice cooker. So, I added 3 cups of rice to 3 cups water, then added in the blended stuff PLUS the rest of the ingredients, mixed it up and closed the lid. I don't think you have to be exact with this, it pretty much always turns out good. Some people like to add jalapenos to the rice or dressing for more spice. But, I am not a spicy person :)


Creamy Cilantro Dressing
1 pkg. Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing (dry mix)
1 cup buttermilk
1/2-1 bunch of cilantro, chopped
1 cup mayo
2 tsp. lime juice
2 tomatillos (remove outer papery skin)
2 garlic cloves
Blend all ingredients in blender or food processor. Refrigerate.

I enjoyed cooking it for you sisters! Glad you all liked it!
