every night this is what my husband and i ask eachother, whats for dinner? and every night i have to rack my brain as to what to make, so we should all help eachother out and swap recipes! here are a few......the girl who does my nails gave me this......its the BEST, every recipe is DEAD ON! it tastes exactly like cafe rio, they are time consuming, but worth it! these recipes make a lot! the recipe says serves around 20

Cafe Rio Pork:

1 bottle honey bbq sauce
1 TBS honey

Place all ingredients in large crock pot and cook on low all night. In the morning take the roast out and leaving the juice in the crock pot, shred the roast. Then place the shredded roast back in the crock pot and leave it on low.

Cafe Rio lime rice:
in a sauce pan saute:
2 tbs butter
1 yellow onion, chopped

Add onion and garlic to boiling water.
Add 3 cups long grain rice. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 min.

1 cup mayonnaise
1-2 tomatillos, peeled
