This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.


Lean pork is combined with rice noodles and cabbage for a quick and flavorful stir-fry dinner.


4 cups water
8 ounces uncooked traditional or thin rice noodles
1/2 cup chopped green onions, white and tender green tops
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound boneless pork loin chops, defrosted if frozen
1 large onion
1 tablespoon bottle minced garlic
2 teaspoons bottled fresh ginger
1 large package (16 ounce size) coleslaw mix
OR
6 cups thinly sliced cabbage
1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
black pepper, to taste
In a 2-quart or larger saucepan, bring water to a boil. Stir the rice noodles in the boiling water, and remove the pan from the heat. Cover the pan, and let the noodles soak until they are tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.
In a 12-inch, extra-deep nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Slice the pork into thin strips, adding it to the pan as you slice. Peel and slice the onion into thin rings, adding them to the skillet as you slice. Raise the heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes or until the pork is cooked through. Just before the pork is cooked, add the garlic and ginger. Stir well. Remove the pork and onions to a plate, and set aside.
Place the cabbage and soy sauce in the skillet over medium-high heat. Toss and cook until the cabbage cooks down, about 1 minute.
Stir in the reserved pork, noodles and green onions. Stir and cook until the ingredients are well combined, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, and serve immediately.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

I am always looking for good pork recipes and found a great one here. The pork comes out tender, not overcooked, and the coleslaw mix is perfect. I used ramen noodles, just because my husband loves them...works well in this recipe.

I used fresh ginger and fresh garlic opposed to the bottled kind recommended. Very simple recipe and good for a quick dinner. Could substitute chicken or shrimp just as easily for the pork.

I was actually afraid that this dish wasn't going to have a lot of flavor other than soy sauce, but it really turned out well! I used brown rice noodles and the pre-shredded coleslaw mix. The pork was tender and the garlic and ginger along with the soy sauce provided more than enough flavor.
