"Slap Your Grandma Bars"

At least that's what my sister calls them because she say's you'd slap your grandma to have one*. They are pretty darn tasty!

1 pkg. Yellow cake mix
1 stick butter
1 egg
Mix these together and press in bottom of 9x13 pan.
1 (8 oz) cream cheese
1 box powdered sugar
2 eggs
Mix these with beaters and pour over your bottom layer. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until a dark golden brown. Cool completely before cutting. They are gooey and taste great chilled!

*I cannot be held liable for any negative consequences that may occur if you were to actually slap your Grandma. Elder abuse is NEVER okay!

Cafe Rio Burritos

Sweet Pork:
3lbs pork roast (boneless)
16 oz salsa
1 can Coke
1 Cup brown sugar (I like it less sweet so I only put 1/2 cup)
water

Put roast in crock pot and fill half way with water. Add salt and cook on high for 4 hours. Drain the liquid and remove the roast. Shred the roast and put back in crock pot. Pour the salsa, coke and brown sugar in and mix with pork. Cook on high for 2 more hours.

Creamy Tomatilo Dressing:
1 pkg dry Ranch dressing mix
1 cup milk
1 cup mayonnaise
2-3 green tomatillos
1 jalapeno (seeds removed, or leave this out if you don't want it too spicy)
1/2 bunch cilantro
juice from 1 lime

Put chopped up tomatillos and jalapeno in a glass dish with a splash of olive oil, salt and garlic salt. Roast for 25 minutes at 350. Then place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.

Burrito prep:
Get large tortilla and add black or pinto beans (or a mix of the two) then add sweet pork. Roll it up and top with plenty of Tomatillo dressing and then Mexican blend cheese. Put it in the microwave just long enough to melt the cheese and then add tomatoes, onions, sour cream, or guacamole according to your own personal tastes.
