These were delicious, especially with that homemade salsa! A little tedious to make, and I used regular butter instead of clarified. Have no idea what kalua pork is, but I used pulled pork. Great way to sneak in a veggie, my kids loved the quesadillas and didn't ask about the cabbage being inside. Made this for celebrating Hawaii's independence, searched Hawaiin recipes. Loved the fact that this was different, but the real star was the salsa.
