Makes: 8 servings. Prep: 10 minutes. Slow
Cook: on high, heat for 5 1/2 hours.

Ingredients
1 medium-size onion, coarsely chopped
1 boneless pork shoulder roast or picnic roast (about 3 1/2 pounds)
1 medium-size sweet red pepper, cut into 1/4-inch squares
1 medium-size sweet green pepper, cut into 1/4-inch squares
1 can (14.5 ounces) jalape�o-flavored diced tomatoes
2 teaspoons ground cumin
11/2 teaspoons garlic salt
11/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon cayenne red pepper
1 jar (4 ounces) diced green chiles, drained
1 can (11 ounces) corn kernels, drained
3 tablespoons tomato paste

Garnish (optional):
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, rinsed and patted dry
Sour cream

Directions
1. In 5- to 5 1/2-quart slow cooker, layer the chopped onion, pork roast and sweet peppers. In a medium-size bowl, stir together the tomatoes, cumin, garlic salt, oregano and cayenne pepper. Pour evenly over the mixture in the slow cooker. Add chiles and corn.
