Can you believe we are already in March? Easter is right around the corner and who can forget daylight savings time. I really really wish they would just leave the time alone, so I don’t have to change every clock in my house, car and work. Let’s not forget about losing that extra hour of perfect sleep this weekend. As a mom I take every hour that I can get. The only good thing about spring forward is I will have more time to take photos when I get off of work.
This past week I loaded up on groceries so I could make this hoisin pork with rice noodles. I am a huge menu planner and that comes in handy while both of us are working. The menu planner, grocery list and recipe holder I use is ZipList which can be accessed from my website at the top. Cassie wrote a great article the other day about menu planning if you are interested.
I’m also in the process of reorganizing my kitchen pantry. I will have a post after it is done showing all the work that I am doing so it doesn’t look like a complete mess.
In a medium size bowl combine all of the marinade ingredients.
Add the chopped pork loin pieces and place in refrigerator overnight.
Cook rice noodles according to the package and then drain.
While noodles are cooking heat a large sauce pan over medium heat. Add the meat and a little bit of the sauce if any is left over. Cook until brown and then add the noodles.
Stir the mixture and add carrots, peanuts, green onions and juice from one lime.
(If dish comes out too dry for your liking just top with a little soy sauce)

No problem Cassie!
OMG! I am always looking for easy Asian inspired meals because me and Mr. Rice don’t seem to get along. Can’t wait to try this recipe!!
Thanks Lauren! Have a great weekend!

I love cooking with rice noodles! It’s something I just discovered and am always looking for new recipes.
Love your photography! And this sounds so good:)
Thank you!
I love rice noodles and this looks perfect. 🙂 I agree, I don’t like the change of time and changing all the clocks everywhere. Seems like there’s always one here and there that I forget about too. hahaha….I love menu planning. I used to do that and then my kids requests on whats for dinner messed up the plans and I haven’t done so for a while. I think I’ll have to pick it up again. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.
Thanks Amy! Hope you have had a great weekend so far.
