These coconut lime pork tacos are easy, fast, and simple, yet feel like a big step up from regular taco night. The creaminess of the coconut-pork and avocado are complimented by the bright lime juice and salty cotija, making for the perfect bite. Both flour and corn tortillas work great, and feel free to garnish with additional toppings.

1 small onion, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste
