  • 1 cup melted virgin coconut oil
  • 10 omega 3 eggs
  • 5 large carrots,peeled and shredded
  • 1 cup pure maple syrup (reserve 1 tablespoon for date mixture)

Carnitas

2 pound boneless pork butt or shoulder, trimmed, cut into 2-inch pieces
14 1/2-ounce can chicken broth
1 cup (about) water

Place pork in heavy large pot. Add broth. Add enough water to cover pork by 1/2 inch. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium. Cover partially; simmer until meat is very tender and liquid is absorbed, about 1 hour 45 minutes. Cool slightly. Shred meat.

It even better if you let it fry a bit in the rendered fat, the caramelized bits are the best.
