Easy pork recipes — I’m sharing a dinner idea that’s quick and delicious, sponsored by Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork. 

Lately I’ve been winning when it comes to the “what’s for dinner” game. I just needed to share that with you guys because it’s one of the few things I’ve managed to accomplish lately. We’ve got a lot of projects going on so the house is kind of a disaster. We’re adjusting to a new place and completely off our routine. Things are pretty chaotic around here so I need to remind myself to celebrate the small victories. Like getting a hassle-free dinner on the table that gets a thumbs up from everyone… mom win!
