How many grams, or ounces, in one serving size? I need to measure everything out for my diet.
Thank you!

Hey Melissa, do you think I could make the sauce with the above ingredients and then add it to already-cooked pork? (Like using her Costco pulled pork as a short-cut.)

My son and I made this in the slow cooker a few days ago and it was fabulous. We have been eating on this for three days! It was a lot of food. Love the sweet flavor, and taste great with Healthy Melissa’s One Pot Quinoa Taco Casserole(recipe found here as well). We made this recipe a few days after and opened up our Barbacoa leftovers to eat on the side. So good!

It’s a little can of green chilis 4.5 ounce and a normal can of diced tomatoes – about 14.5 ounce. Good luck, you’ll love it!

I LOVE these in taquitos- soo easy & a great freezer meal! Though my recipe is alot easier: equal parts salsa & brown sugar. I”ll have to try yours sometime though!
