Pulled Pork with Pineapple Salsa over Roasted Acorn Squash

Two weeks ago I shared a simple recipe for 3-ingredient crockpot pulled pork.

Today, I wanted to share with you one of our favorite ways to enjoy this!

This Pulled Pork with Pineapple Salsa over Roasted Acorn Squash goes together quickly enough (once the pork has been cooked) that it makes for a great work/school night meal. Very filling, very affordable, my kids adore this dish!

Enjoy!
