Ingredients

For pork:

2 pound boneless pork loin roast
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground ginger
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 small white onion, coarsely chopped
½ cup orange juice
2 limes, cut in half

For tacos:

12 (6-inch) soft corn tortillas

For each serving, cover corn tortilla with 2 tablespoons cheese; microwave for 20 seconds. Top with pulled pork, 2 teaspoons of sour cream mix, 1½ tablespoons shredded cabbage and 1 tablespoon of salsa. Fold and serve immediately.
