I recently did a poll on Instagram asking what kinds of new recipes people wanted to see on the blog and one of the overwhelming responses was JACKFRUIT recipes. SO, today I’m delivering on the promise to share MANY more jackfruit recipes :D<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m a huge fan of my Jackfruit BBQ recipe<\/a> but honestly, this Jackfruit Carnitas might be my new favorite one on the blog and I love how easy it is to make. It’s truly delicious on it’s own but I almost always use it as an excuse to make tacos. Tacos are always a good idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jackfruit is a large tropical fruit that’s relatively inexpensive to buy in its raw and whole form. And, tou can eat it raw, like other fruits. The jackfruit that we’re using in this particular recipe (and that is typically used in meat replacement recipes like this) is young GREEN jackfruit in brine\/ water.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I won’t pretend to be an expert on jackfruit, but if you want to learn more, HERE<\/a> is a more detailed description!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
