Making Carnitas Avocado Pizza is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Carnitas: In a slow cooker, combine the pork shoulder, olive oil, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shredded. Alternatively, use pre-cooked carnitas for a quicker option.

2. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to get a crispy crust.

3. Prepare the Pizza Dough: If using store-bought dough, roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness. If making homemade dough, prepare it according to your recipe.

4. Assemble the Pizza: Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread a thin layer of cheese on the base.

5. Add the Carnitas: Evenly distribute the shredded carnitas over the cheese layer.

6. Top with More Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top of the carnitas.

7. Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

8. Add Toppings: Remove the pizza from the oven. Immediately add the sliced avocado, diced red onion, and chopped cilantro.

9. Finishing Touches: Squeeze fresh lime juice over the pizza for an extra burst of flavor.

10. Slice and Serve: Allow the pizza to cool for a couple of minutes before slicing. Serve warm, with lime wedges on the side.
