As much as we love to eat healthy, we are no stranger to the take out craving ... especially on Friday night!  Our skinny secret is how we handle these sneaky cravings.  Instead of dialing up a carton full of calories, we love to make our own takeout and this one is sure to please!
 

Tonight we're making our take on sweet & sour pork.  Our sauce is a sweet & tangy blend of low sodium soy sauce, pineapple juice, rice wine vinegar, honey, fresh garlic & ginger.  We stir-fry up our organic boneless pork with a mix of pineapple, red bell pepper and scallions.  

 

With all the flavor this dish serves up, we have no problem going low carb tonight but you can certainly serve this up over a serving of brown rice if you choose too!

 

So put down the phone, kick the excess calories & sodium to the curb, and join us while we make our own take out tonight.  Hope you enjoy!
