I just love this meal. It comes together so fast and everybody likes it.
I am talking about Mu Shu Pork.
My kids laugh when we talk MuShu’ for dinner.
I think there’s even a Veggie Tales song with Mu Shu in it…can’t remember the name of the song though.
{oh yeah…it’s called Do the Mu Shu}
{oh yeah…it’s called Do the Mu Shu}
1 large pork tenderloin {about 1 pound}, cut into 1/2 inch strips
1 tablespoon Asian chili-garlice sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 oz. shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and sliced thin {I have used regular mushrooms}
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 14 oz. bag coleslaw mix
1 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons dry sherry
3 scallions, sliced thin for garnish
1 pkg. bean sprouts for garnish
8 8-in flour tortiallas, warmed
1. Pat pork dry and toss with chili-garlic sauce. Heat 1 tb. oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until pork is no longer pink-3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to plate and tent with foil.
2. Add remaining oil and mushrooms to skillet and cook over medium high heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in ginger and cook until fragrant…about 30 seconds. Add coleslaw mix and cook until wilted…about 3 minutes. Stir in pork, along with and pork juices on plate, 1/2 cup hoisin sauce, sherry and cook until sauce in slightly thickened..about 1 minute. Spoon pork mixture onto to warm tortillas. Sprinkle with sliced green onion and bean sprouts for extra crunch and flavour. Pass remaining hoisin sauce at table.

On Sunday night, I opened the fridge and found this:
Yes. It says ‘TOUCH & DIE’.
Hunter developed a special cupcake recipe as part of a project for school and these are the samples that she is taking to school.
I think she was worried that they would not survive the night!
They do look yummy!
Share the Love!

I love that note in the 'frig'! It reminds me of when all five of our children still lived at home and the teenaged daughters would bring home a 'to-go box' from their favorite restaurant with similar notes addressed to their younger brothers! Thanks for the smile today.
