Ain't Nobody Got Time For That

So like most Americans, I work a full time job and cooking dinner after a long day at work is something I do not look forward to.  To rescue myself from starving to death when I have no ambition to cook I came up with quick and easy recipe:

Mexican Pork and Rice





What you need:

1 lb pork chop suey meat or pork tenderloin trimmed of fat and cut into 1/2" pieces

1 Package Uncle Ben's Ready Rice


1 Jar of Black Bean and Corn Salsa or any other type of Chunky Salsa from your pantry



1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1 teaspoon Garlic Powder

Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese

What to do:

Heat oil in pan over medium high heat, saute pork and garlic powder until pork is no longer pink and has a nice color (about 5-7 minutes). Add salsa and cook an additional 3-5 minutes.   Meanwhile, prepare rice as directed on package (usually 90 seconds in microwave).  Add rice to pan, stir and remove from heat.

Plate as it is or you can also serve on tortilla shells.  Sprinkle Cheddar Cheese on top and dinner is done!

Quick, Easy, Yummy and done in 15 minutes or less!  What is better than that.
