directions

Combine the first nine spices in a small bowl and mix well.
Slice the pork cutlets into 1 inch-wide strips. Sprinkle the spice mix over the strips, mix well, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Shake off any excess spice mixture and thread the meat onto skewers. Brush with a mixture of the olive oil and lemon juice.
Preheat the grill on high heat.
Cook the meat for 2 minutes on each side. Grill the tortillas for 30 seconds on each side. Remove the meat from the skewers and place on the tortillas with a few slices of avocado. Roll up the tortillas and serve.

I just ate these off the skewers instead of using tortillas. Brushing the pork with olive oil and lemon juice gave the meat a great flavor and prevented it from sticking to the grill. In the future I may change the spices a little to better suit my tastes. I made this for ZWT5.

I have two wonderful kids,6 and 12, my youngest loves to help in the kitchen. His specialties are homemade noodles and macaroni salad. My daughter loves all things macaroni and cheese! In the summers, we spend a lot of time at the lake and on our four-wheelers. The littlest has started T-ball this year, and we are getting a big kick out of watching those little guys play. DD is into basketball and is my biggest helper. I am not a baker. However; I have found many delicious recipes on this site that are challenging my baking abilities. My kids are encouraging me to keep polishing up my baking skills! I love to collect cookbooks! Finding this site was a stroke of luck. Now, I can keep all my favorite recipes in one place, and put the less used books away to make room for new ones! <img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/i-connected-125.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket></a> <img src=http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii31/bleupantry/RecipeZaar%20and%20other%20Food/Top%20Favs%20of%202008%20GAME/ParticipationBanner.jpg> <img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/potluckpbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket> <img src=http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e110/flower753/Food/my3chefsnov2008.jpg> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket> <img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg> <a href=http://www.flickr.com/photos/26630178@N05/3510953178/ title=banner3 by *sparkly*, on Flickr><img src=http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3387/3510953178_b35b3086a8.jpg width=500 height=250 alt=banner3 /></a>
