These Carnitas Bowls are a delicious cook once eat twice meal. You can prepare the carnitas for burritos or tacos one night and serve these bowls on another night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of spending $10 dollars at a fast food place for a burrito bowl, make your own with simple fresh ingredients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These bowls are great for Cinco de Mayo, Mexican Independence Day (which is in September!) or anytime you get the craving for a flavorful but healthy meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips for Preparing Carnitas Bowls on Weeknights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Carnitas are traditionally made by simmering pork in lard for hours until it becomes tender then turning up the heat to crisp the outside. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the pressure cooker does make it faster the carnitas take about 90 minutes<\/strong> to saut\u00e9, come to pressure cook and then wait for a natural release. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I highly recommend preparing it for another meal and saving a few cups of the meat and some of the cooking juices before broiling it for these. It is all hands off time though, so if you have the time to spare, make it specially for this meal and prep everything else while waiting for the pressure to release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Same for the Cilantro Lime Rice. You can use the pressure cooker to steam up rice for this dish, or you can use leftover rice to make the Cilantro Lime Rice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Store bought salsa or pico de gallo would be fine, but it is really easy to chop up and make your own while the pork and rice are cooking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
