Thai-Style Pork Burritos

Submitted by Ms. Mother Earth

"DH and I are eating much healthier now days and this recipe totally fits the bill. I found the basic ingredients on a package of lean ground pork. (which by the way is lower in fat then ground turkey or chicken and delicious) Quick, easy, healthy and full of flavor!***I do not agree with RecipeZaar's calculation of the calories and fat in my recipe. (no offense RZ!) Per the nutrition facts on the lean pork packaging, there are 4 grams of fat and 180 calories total for the pork; plus the minimal amount the other ingredients contribute. Hence my praise for the low fat healthy recipe. :)"

This is so easy! Also a favorite of my husband's. Have made it many times. We like a little uncooked cabbage on each and drizzle of sweet chili sauce. Sweet chili sauce is a must!

This was REALLY GOOD!! We are trying to cut carbs, so I tried making wraps with lettuce leaves. That didn't work, so we ended up just eating it in a bowl with a spoon, but the flavor was fantastic!! I made it according to the directions, adding half the Sriracha while cooking and letting people put on more if they wanted. I was hoping to have leftovers for lunch tomorrow, but there aren't any. Thanks for a great recipe!!

Just finished one of these delicious burritos for lunch today and absolutely loved them. They are really spicy (even with using only 1/2 tbsp. Sriracha sauce, but not too spicy. Nice and filling -- really hits the spot. Will definitely make these burritos again. Made for Fall PAC, 2012.
