I was lucky enough to have all of these ingredients sitting around, and when I threw them together, I was extremely happy with how it turned out! This recipe is very forgiving. You can use more or less of nearly all of the ingredients, or use chicken or turkey (or no meat) instead of the pork (the pork had great flavor, though.) My youngest daughter gobbled this up!
1 cup prepared brown rice
2 cups prepared white rice
1 cup cubed seasoned (and cooked) pork tenderloin
1 cup chopped bing cherries
1 small container of crushed Dole pineapple (or equivalent)
1/4 cup of chopped almond
1/2 cup carmelized onion
2/3 cup Kikkoman Stir Fry Sauce (or equivalent)
Directions: Stir all ingredients together (you may want to add some roasted garlic for taste), heat …

2 1/3 cups Original Bisquick mix
2/3 cup milk
3 Tbsp sugar
3 Tbsp butter, melted
Stir all ingredients together until dough forms. Drop by large spoonfuls onto cobbler filling. …
Recipes aren’t something I plan on sharing regularly (because there are so many great recipe blogs out there), but sometimes I come across one that’s just too good to keep to myself. The muffin recipe below is fairly healthy (w/ sweet potatoes and whole wheat flour), and my girls devour these every time I make them. With one picky eater and one “give me meat and potatoes” eater (the baby, not my husband), it’s nice knowing they’re getting some homemade nutrition in the morning.
My girls love these! (Anna only eats the muffin tops, but who can blame her?)
