Meal Ideas

30 Jan

With simple ingredients like stir fry veggies, Ramen noodles and an easy to make stir fry sauce, Ginger Pork Stir Fry with Ramen is fast and filling. A delicious family weeknight meal!

Having a busy family on the go can be so hard! Meals that can be prepped ahead of time and then quickly thrown together are great for those nights when everyone is on the move. This is one of those.

The great thing about this recipe is that you can save a lot of time by using prepackaged stir fry veggies, cutting thick pork chops into bite sized pieces, and making the stir fry sauce ahead of time.

This meal can be served over rice if you prefer but those super affordable ramen noodles are a great base and take literally three minutes to cook. Weeknight perfection!
