I'm really proud of this one.
For a starter I had this:
http://www.elise.com/recipes/archives/000225ceviche.php
The recipe calls for 2 pounds of red snapper. At $17.99 a pound, I couldn't buy 2 pounds, so I bought 1 pound red snapper, and 1 pound of wild caught salmon for $11.99 per pound.
I served the ceviche in lettuce cups, and had tortilla chips for our guests.
I made a Chipotle Slaw:
2 bags of prepared shredded cabbage
2/3 c of mayo. I used Dukes
3 chipotle peppers in adobo
1/4 c. diced purple onion
1 teaspoon of fresh lime juice
sea salt and pepper to taste
The slaw was good on it's own, but we started wrapping it up with the cerviche in lettuce wraps. It was awesome.
Then I stole the recipe for Pork Carnitas from the Crock Pot thread.

I had corn tortillas for hubby and our guests and I ate mine in lettuce wraps.
We served wedges of lime, shredded cheese, sliced olives, fresh salsa, avocado and cilantro with the carnitas. They were a hit.
I'll definitely make this again.
