Hints & Tips

Tips: For a quicker meal: substitute cooked, shredded pork, chicken or beef for the pork cubes and stir into onions after they are softened. Add remaining ingredients and simmer 5 minutes or until heated through.

For a lower fat meal: substitute 1-1/4 pounds pork tenderloin for pork butt and reduce cook time to 10 minutes or until pork is done.
