PIGS IN A PALEO POUCH
Tasty high-protein, low-carb breakfast idea. Easy to make and I like making my own sausage because I know what's in it! These will keep and re-heat well. Make them on Sunday and eat them as a quick 'grab-and-go' during the week.

Tips:
- For the salsa, use ripe, fresh tomatoes for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh tomatoes, you can use canned diced tomatoes, but be sure to drain them well before using.
- To make the guacamole, use ripe avocados. If your avocados are not ripe, you can speed up the ripening process by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or banana.
- To make the sour cream, you can use store-bought sour cream or make your own by combining 1 cup of heavy cream with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Let the mixture sit for at least 12 hours before using.
- To assemble the pigs in a poncho, start by placing a tortilla on a plate. Spread some salsa on the tortilla, then top with some guacamole and sour cream. Add your favorite toppings, such as shredded chicken or beef, chopped onion, or cilantro.
- Fold the tortilla in half, then in half again to create a poncho shape. Serve immediately.
