Friday Foodie Fix – Pork

Friday Foodie Fix

This week’s Friday Foodie Fix Secret Ingredient is Pork.  I usually have fruits and vegetables but didn’t want to leave out meats totally.  Especially the one that gives us bacon.  I think bacon and pancetta are two of my favorite ingredients next to onions and garlic.

But here’s the thing.  I only buy organic uncured bacon.  I also try to find organic pork that is allowed to roam on the farm.  I watched Stuff Happens with Bill Nye on Planet Green from the Discovery Channel.  He did a show on breakfast which included information on bacon.  Did you know they are feeding pigs tons of sardines which is not fairing well with the Penguin population.  I won’t even go into the conditions most pigs are raised.  So I ask you, please consider organic pork when you make your purchase.  It really makes a difference in many different ways.

But like I said, I love bacon.  A lot of my pork recipes are ones with bacon in them.  Although I do enjoy a thin quick fry pork chop with a side of applesauce, ground pork and pork roasts.  My mom use to make the best pork chops.  My favorite part was chewing around the bones so I got all the bones.

So do you think with this being the 4th of July weekend, there will be a lot of hot dogs on the grill?

Here are a few of my recipes with pork.
