Comments: We revamped a classic Mexican dish to make it more family-friendly: Pasta takes the place of tortillas and everything's cut into easily-picked up strips. Yields about 2 1/2 cups per serving.
Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons oil, olive divided
0.5 Teaspoon garlic powder
1 Medium bell pepper, yellow sliced in thin strips
Directions:
Cook pasta as directed on package; drain, set aside and cover to keep warm.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of oil, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, cumin, chili powder and garlic powder; mix well. Add pork and toss to coat.

Heat remaining tablespoon of oil in a 12-inch (or larger) nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork mixture; cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add sliced peppers, carrot, onion and chili peppers; cook, stirring, until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in zucchini and remaining 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) of lime juice; cover and cook for 2 minutes.

Spoon pork and vegetable mixture into a large serving bowl. Add cooked pasta; stir gently to mix and coat.
