• This salsa is great as a dip with corn chips, or use it as a topping for quesadillas. It is also a good accompaniment to pan-fried fish. • Rather than serving this dish in the tortillas, you could stuff soft rolls with the pulled pork and banana salsa to create child-friendly sliders. • For a delicious low-carb option, consider serving the dish with a salad instead of tortillas.
