Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground pork
  • 1 large yellow onion diced
  • 4-5 garlic clove minced
  • 1x8 ounce bagged coleslaw mix
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon ground ginger

To serve:

  • 4 cups Cooked white or brown rice

Instructions

Prep Ahead:

  • Brown the pork over medium heat, breaking meat up with a spoon until it cooks.
  • Combine browned ground meat, diced onions, and all seasonings in a resealable bag or container.
  • Cook rice according to directions on package and store in a resealable bag or container.
  • Store in the freezer for up to 3 months in the freezer, or 7-10 days in the fridge.

Prepare From Prepped:

  • If frozen, thaw overnight in the fridge.
  • Heat the browned meat, onions and seasonings in a large saute pan over medium heat, using a wooden spoon to break up and crumble the meat as it cooks, until the pork is cooked through, about 12 minutes.
  • Stir in coleslaw and serve over cooked white rice.
  • Crockpot instructions: Place the frozen browned meat, onions, and seasoning in a crockpot and cook on high for 2 hours, low for 3, until the meat and onions are cooked through. Stir in the coleslaw and serve.
  • Instant Pot instructions: Place frozen browned meat, onions, and seasoning into an Instant Pot and secure the lid. Cook on High for 5 minutes with a natural pressure release. Once the lid is removed, stir in the coleslaw and serve over cooked white rice.
  • Stir in the coleslaw mixture until warmed and mixed completely. Serve over rice.

Make From Fresh:

    Crockpot:

    • Brown the pork over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon until it cooks.
    • Transfer to slow cooker and add remaining ingredients.
    • Cook on low for 2 hours, high for 1, until onions are cooked through and soft.
    • Remove from crockpot and serve over rice.

    Instant Pot:

    • Add all ingredient except for rice to slow cooker and secure the lid.
    • Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes with quick pressure release.
    • When the lid can be removed, serve contents over rice.

    Stovetop:

    • Brown the ground pork over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, about 12 minutes.
    • Add the remaining ingredients and cook until pork is browned and onions have softened, about 5-8 minutes.
    • Remove from heat and serve over rice.

    Notes

    I love playing around with different types of prepared slaw mixtures, depending on what’s available in my grocery store. Use the standard mix, or swap in a broccoli slaw, or a brussels sprouts slaw, or even a beet slaw. This is a mela kit, so you’ll store 3 separate bags and then combine them on the day of serving.
