Method
Wash hands with soap and water.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add oil and chopped onion. Stir occasionally until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, ground pork, peppers and spinach. Stir to crumble meat, cook until no longer pink, about 6 minutes.
Return to heat and add seasonings, stirring to combine. Brown meat 2–3 minutes more and until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine tomatoes with lime juice and fresh cilantro. Season with salt if desired.
Arrange 12 serving cups on a platter and fill with cooked pork mixture. Top with your choice of toppings and tomatoes. Serve immediately.
