This salad is a great way to use up leftover pork. I also like to add some chopped avocado to it.

I didn't have any corn on hand, so I used black beans instead. It was still delicious!

The pork was a little dry. I would recommend cooking it for a shorter amount of time.

This salad is a little too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili powder.
