I came up with this recipe when I had some leftover shredded pork in my refrigerator. A flour tortilla is topped with refried beans, shredded pork sauteed with jalapenos and onions, and shredded pepper jack cheese. Then it is all placed under the broiler until the cheese melts and is topped off with guacamole before being rolled.
