These were wonderful. I fixed the whole recipe as directed and we ate 4 for supper and froze the other 8. I loved the flavor the pork gave it and I used Recipe#329856 in these. I didn't use the bean sprouts due to personal preference. I will be fixing these again. Thanks for sharing. Prepared for PRMR tag game.
