What a great thread!

I made this the other night, my husband went nuts over it (and it's super easy):

Mexican Pork

1 pound pork boneless loin roast, cut into 1" pieces
20-oz. jar chunky salsa
15-oz. can pinto beans, rinsed and drained

Mix pork and salsa in a 3-4 quart slow cooker and cover. Cook on low for 6-8 hours until pork is tender. Add beans, cover crockpot, and cook 10-15 minutes until hot. 4 servings.

Calories: 300
Fat: 8 grams
Sodium: 1100 mg

(I'm thinking you can cut down the sodium by being choosy on the brand of canned salsa and beans - I always look for ones marked "low sodium")
