Last weeks menu plan here, had a roasted crockpot pork recipe that was AMAZING! From that cooked pork, I was able to make 2 more meals. I made the Pork Fried Rice (below) and Pork Quesadillas.
This is my favorite way to cook; cooking once, but turning it into two more meals! So much less work for me and my family doesn’t feel like they are eating leftovers.
Pork Fried Rice
1 cup diced pork (leftover)
2 carrots, diced or shredded
3 green onions, chopped (or you can use white onion diced)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup peas, frozen
2 cups leftover rice (I prefer brown)
4 tsp peanut oil (use canola if that is all you have)
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup hoisen sauce or black bean sauce (or you can use 4 T. soy sauce)
1. Heat 2 tsp of oil and scramble eggs, set aside in another bowl to add later.
2. Add remaining oil and sautee garlic and carrots for 2 minutes, then add onions, peas, rice, pork and sauce. Stir to mix and add eggs back in.
3. Serve with green or carrot salad with ginger dressing.
Oh my, that looks incredible!! Thank you for sharing the recipe!
