Are you a fan of leftovers? You will be after you give this leftover pulled pork chili a try.
I made two pork tenderloins for dinner this week by slow cooking them in the crockpot. We used the meat to make shredded pork tacos loaded with toppings.
They were delicious. But we had lots of leftover shredded pork. What’s a mom to do?

How to make Pulled Pork Chili
Use up that leftover pork tenderloin using an easy dump it and forget it recipe.
Shred the pork, add in your choice of beans, canned tomatoes and corn and sprinkle in some spices.
I love it when dinner comes together easily. I usually have one kid coming home from his activity while the other is headed out the door.
We don’t always get to sit down together as a family.
This pot of chili can stay warm until dinner time, whenever that may be.
The addition of corn, black beans and green chilies gives this chili a real authentic southwestern taste.
Serve it with a sprinkle of cheddar cheese and diced avocado.

Thanks Catherine. We eat a lot of pulled pork in my house and this is such an easy recipe to get dinner on the table quickly.
Well, there is no such thing as leftover pulled pork in our house, as we eat it all. But if there was, this would be a great way to use it.
I agree with you Dannii. We tend to eat up leftovers too. This one is super easy with leftover pork.
