Fry on low heat until cooked through. I would serve this on a hamburger roll (1 item)
with BBQ sauce (2items) .
I would take the vanilla pudding and put it in a nice glass dish . shave chocolate over it. Top with whipped cream (3 items) and put a cherry on top....
We used to eat ground pork sandwiches all the time when I was little.
Nothing too gourmet but edible lol
- Prepared pasta sauce with garlic
- Green bell peppers
- Onions
Result: Pork-stuffed Peppers
Brown pork and onions, seasoning with a little salt and pepper. Mix with some of the pasta sauce and spoon mixture into halved, seeded bell peppers. Bake until peppers are tender. Serve with extra pasta sauce warmed and spooned over top.
And now, a trick learned from my older sister, the diva of desserts - Make bittersweet chocolate "cups" by melting chocolate and, while it is melted, dipping small party balloons in it. Set dipped balloons on a cookie sheet and freeze till chocolate is solidified, then pop balloons.
Half-fill each cup with vanilla pudding, and garnish with chocolate shavings and cherries.
And those peppers sound like a neat alternative to using ground beef.
extras: bisquick, heavy cream, onion
Fry pork with celery and onion. Whisk in a little bisquick and cream to thicken.
Make shortcakes with Bisquick and cream. Serve pork and gravy over half of shortcakes.
Slice remaining shortcakes in half. Top with pudding, cherries and shaved chocolate. Whip some heavy cream to serve.
Braised Pork patties with Chocolate and Cherries
Ingredients:
2 tbsp. vegetable oil 4 thick pork patties 1 small onion, medium dice 1 carrot, medium dice 1 clove of garlic, chopped 8 oz syrah 16-oz veal or beef stock 8 oz chicken stock 1/3 cup maraschino cherries 1 bay leaf 1 oz bittersweet chocolate ¼ dried cherries
Instructions:
Heat the vegetable oil in a large saucepan. Brown the pork patties on both sides and season with salt and pepper. Remove from the pan. Add the onion, carrots, and garlic to the pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the syrah, then add the veal and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and then put the pork patties, cherries, maraschino cherries, chocolate, and bay leaf in to the liquid. Return to a boil, and reduce the heat. Cover the pan and cook approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove the pork to a serving plate, cover to keep warm. Thicken the liquid with the roux and simmer for 30 minutes. Strain the sauce, return the pork patties to the sauce and simmer to reheat the pork.
Roux

Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Whisk in the flour and cook over medium heat about 3-4 minutes. Set aside to cool.
I'd make the vanilla pudding
Shave the chocolate and sprinkle it on top of the pudding
Place a cherry there too,
And I'd put the ground pork and celery back in the fridge for tomorrow. Then I'd make some of those wonderful pork patties listed up there.
Katie, I would have to use chocolate in that pudding. I hate vanilla pudding!
That's about the only time I do any of that fancy stuff, Jonathan.
Matthew, if you had a nice grilled or roasted pork tenderloin that's been marinated for a day or two, you would change your mind about pork. Trust me.
