Well, once again I had to quick snap some pictures before the last of this was devoured. The kids loved it, the hubby loved it, I loved it… the list goes on.
Linus kept going back for more, and more and more and then more. He couldn’t stop eating it – I have never seen a 7 year old boy eat so much pork.
It has a wonderful combination of lime, garlic and spicy flavor to it. Not a lot of spice but just a tiny bit to add another dimension to it. It was so little spice that the kids didn’t even notice đ
We even all liked the bok choy which I wasn’t sure about but decided to go for anyway. It wasn’t LOVED, but it was tolerated and even liked by some.
