ASIAN SWEET AND SOUR PORK WITH RICE
Meet the Cook: My husband and I have four children, ages 15 to 3 - and this dish is the best way I've found to get them to eat their vegetables! (I'll frequently substitute broccoli and cauliflower, for instance, for some of the other ingredients.) Actually, my kids call this "Mom's Secret Recipe", because I put something different in every time - instead of pork, I'll sometimes use chicken, beef or tuna. However I prepare it, they'll each have two or three helpings. -Sally Pelszynski, Princeton, Illinois
