Easy Pork and Pineapple Tacos

Ok, I know I've been really MIA lately, but--surprise!--we have baby #3!  I'm still getting back into the swing of dinnertime, but I'm getting there.  In the meantime, here's a really great recipe for some easy pork tacos.  I can without hesitation say that I have never bought pork tenderloin before, but don't let the pork log deter you!  (Sorry for that weird mental picture.)  These tacos are amazingly easy to make and seriously delicious!  Corn tortillas are a must, and you can go easy on the toppings.  I liked mine with just a little hot sauce and some extra cilantro.
