These 21 Day Fix Grilled Pork Tacos bring together perfect summertime flavors with fresh, homemade avocado peach salsa! Chop and mix the salsa then fire up the grill to have dinner ready in no time!
I am pretty sure I have said this at other times of the year (hello Fall!), but hear me out anyway. Summer is the BEST time of year for food.
The best.
Zucchini. Fresh tomatoes. Blueberries. Peaches. Cherries.
This list could go on for days.
But with two busy kids, I have only gotten to a few of the many recipes swirling around in my head featuring these delicious seasonal foods. And since I’m still waiting for my clone to arrive, I can only do what I can do, right?
I guess there’s always next year…hope you stick around to eat with me!
Anyway, this super simple recipe screams summer and, while perfectly easy for a weeknight, it was also fun paired with some Friday night cocktails.
The farm fresh peach avocado salsa was on point, if I do say so myself. Deelish!
And the pork was super tasty without hours of marinating, which is always a plus.
Someday I’ll get a better pic of that. You know, when my clone arrives. But until then, you’ll have to just trust me.

Grilled pork tacos bring together perfect summertime flavors with fresh, homemade avocado peach salsa! Chop and mix the salsa then fire up the grill to have dinner ready in no time!
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless pork chops
- 1 T salt free taco seasoning
- olive oil spray
- salt and pepper
- 8 corn tortillas
- shredded lettuce or cabbage
peach salsa
- 2 peaches pitted and finely chopped
- 1 1/3 cup of ripe avocado, diced
- 1 small red or orange bell pepper, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup red onion, diced
- minced jalapeno, to taste
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 tsp honey
- salt and pepper, to taste
- optional add-in – Greek yogurt with fresh lime juice
Instructions
- Combine ingredients for salsa together and refrigerate while prepping and cooking your pork.
- Using a meat pounder, pound pork until the thickness is pretty even. Spray pork chops with olive oil spray, then sprinkle both sides with some salt, pepper, and salt free taco seasoning.
- Grill pork 4-5 minutes minutes per side or until cooked through. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
- Lightly spray the corn tortillas with olive oil and place on the top rack of the grill for a minute or so, just until warm and pliable.
- Assemble tacos! I love starting with some Greek yogurt mixed with lime juice, then layering lettuce/cabbage, followed by the the pork and the peach avocado salsa. YUM!!

Thank you so much, Rebekah! You made my night!

I’m SO glad I found your blog. I’m doing Country Heat, too. And my husband decided to do the meal plan with me so I was desperately trying to figure out what to make for the week when I found your blog. Now usually, when I see a menu for the week online, one or two things look good to me. That’s it. But EVERYTHING on your menu this week looked awesome. I’ve only done the grilled pork tacos and the chicken caprese but both have been huge hits with the fam and I can’t wait to try the rest of the recipes! Thank you so much for what you do 🙂
Nancylynn says
Thank you for taking the time to write such a sweet note!! It seriously means the world to me. I love cooking and blogging…and to know my work is helping someone is the best!!
Shannon says
Have this planned for tomorrow night! Which container did you use to measure out the salsa for the counts you provided?
Nancylynn says
Just divide it into 4 servings and enjoy :).

Hi! I’m just wondering as I am from the UK and some of the American measures are written differently, I wanted to ask what 1 T means? is this for Tsp (teaspoon) or Tbsp (Tablespoon) or does the T stand for something else? I hope I’m not sounding stupid when I ask this.
Nancylynn says
Hi! Not stupid at all! The uppercase T is for tablespoon! 🙂
