Why it works

  • Celiac disease: Gluten-free broth and corn tortillas keep the pulled pork and its toppings free of gluten-containing grains.
  • Wheat allergy: Gluten-free broth and corn tortillas keep wheat out of the pork and tortillas.
  • Gluten-free: Gluten-free broth and corn tortillas pair with pork, onion and cabbage.
  • No spicy food: Mild smoked paprika and oregano season the pork without spicy heat.
  • Tree nut allergy: Pork, cabbage, corn tortillas and olive oil make up the dish, with no tree nuts.
