We really love taco nights in our house and let me tell you, these Pork Tacos with Sweet & Spicy Peach Salsa were a huge hit! This meal is not only delicious and colorful but it is on the table in 30 minutes! You are going to love this recipe!
I am always looking to come up with new dinner ideas that I can throw together quickly because with soccer, hockey and school there is no time to spend all day in the kitchen. This whole meal comes together easily and 30 minutes thanks to Smithfield® which is a huge win in my books! The flavors are perfection!!!
The other day while at Walmart, I picked up a Smithfield® Marinated Homestyle Pork Roast for my tacos. The flavor is fantastic and ready to go making my life easier! I know you may be thinking how is she making a pork roast in under 30 minutes? Simple fix my friends, I cut the roast into thirds first, sear it on all sides in an oven safe skillet then finish it off in the oven. This method is easy and cuts the cooking time down big time.
To build layers of flavor for these Pork Tacos I made a really simple red cabbage slaw. Thinly sliced cabbage tossed with a quick dressing and this adds flavor, crunch and that gorgeous color. The other element is my sweet & spicy peach salsa! This stuff is SO good!!! Diced fresh peaches, jalapeño, red onion, lime juice, cilantro and a little sauce. A gorgeous balance of flavors in these Pork Tacos with Sweet & Spicy Peach Salsa- this right here is Real Flavor Real Fast my friends!

How fabulous do these tacos look?! The Smithfield® Marinated Homestyle Pork Roast is so perfectly seasoned, tender and juicy. Another great way to cook up the pork for these tacos is to grill it! We’ve not had the greatest weather the past few days getting just a bit of the effects of Hurricane Jose so I cooked mine inside this time but a good char from the grill would be awesome too- either way, these Pork Tacos with Sweet & Spicy Peach Salsa are a perfect meal for any night of the week!
If you happen to have some leftover pork you can make a killer burrito with some rice and beans for lunch the next day. Or you can toss the pork with chopped lettuce, black beans, tomatoes, peach salsa and a squeeze of fresh lime juice for a simple salad.

Oh my goodness this looks mouth wateringly delicious!! Think I could sub the roast for a pork tenderloin? I’m always tempted to get the marinated ones but never sure what to do with it!
Angela LeMoine
Thanks so much Natalie! You could definitely sub a Tenderloin in there! Sear on all sides then pop in the oven or pop on the grill for extra char

We absolutely love taco nights in our house, and the combination of pork tacos with that peach salsa sounds delicious! There’s still a couple of months of grilling season left, and I’m totally going to put these on the grill to get that charred flavor. Sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing! #client
