Ground Pork Fried Rice and the Weekly Menu
This colorful, delicious, semi-homemade dinner comes together quickly, starting with ground pork. It is flavorful, tasty, and nutritious. It is a great way to use up leftover rice, but you can also use precooked rice from those microwaveable cups or pouches with great results. If you have leftover or fresh veggies, feel free to add them to this stir-fry. A package of frozen stir-fry vegetables makes this meal quick and easy.
