Sweet Pork Tacos with Cilantro Ranch Dressing

Ron and I started a garden this year and I was looking for different recipes to use some of my fresh cilantro when I came across this recipe from Cassie Craves. Ron and I love tacos and it is always great to find a new recipe we can try. When I saw this this recipe I thought it was perfect to use with my fresh herbs. The other plus of this recipe is that the meat is slow cooked. Slow cooked meat = tender juicy deliciousness. I cut back on the amount of cola used in the recipe because 3 cans seemed like a lot to me and I didn't think it needed that much liquid. I also reduced the amount of sugar used in the cilantro ranch dressing.  The recipe call for the pork to sit overnight. I forgot this step and added it all to my crockpot and the results were great. Ron and I loved these tacos. I used the meat for salads to bring to work and it was absolutely delicious. These are a must make for any taco lover!
