Easy Sweet and Sour Pork is the perfect answer for a night where you want to serve something warm and fast as well as healthy for your family.
We often choose an Asian fare for dinner to add different types of flavor to our weekly dinners.
My kids especially love if I remember to make egg rolls or spring rolls along with it.
Those I pick up from a local restaurant. I have never been able to do that recipe justice!
I often round out the meal with either Won Ton or Egg Drop Soup.
For fortune cookies they are on their own!!
I know your family will enjoy this Easy Sweet and Sour Pork recipe. You will too!
