Super Snacks for the Super Bowl: Pulled Pork and Slaw Snackers

Remember my insatiable craving for pulled pork and slaw the other day?

Once I figured out how to make ridiculously good low carb sauce for the pork I tackled the problem of how to eat it since bread was out and I didn't want to just eat it with a fork.

I so found the best solution in the world- when in doubt, stuff it in a jalapeño!

Absolute, football-friendly, deliciousness!

Everyone is going to like this, whether they're low-carb or not, and in my mind that's definitely the best kind of appetizer.  It's not a weird diet-y dish, it's just delicious.

Here's the beauty of this dish- if you're not watching your carbs it's still going to be delicious and it's going to be even easier to make.

You can buy pre-sauced pulled pork and slaw at the store and just throw this all together in a matter of minutes, it's kind of perfect.

Or, if you're like me and you've got a few holiday pounds lingering make my low-carb version.

I used my low-carb Sweet and Spicy BBQ sauce on a hunk of pork I threw in the slow cooker and shredded and topped the baked jalapeños with my low carb slaw to finish them off.

I did leave the cucumber out of my slaw recipe, but other than that I left it alone completely.

SO GOOD, and definitely worth making again!
