Peach Mango Sorbet

This sorbet was a delicious blend of peaches and mango. It's a little thicker than the raspberry one I love, but so refreshing!

Peach Mango Sorbet

2 cups peaches (can use frozen peach slices or 4 peaches)
1 fresh mango, cut into chunks
1 cup water
1 cup sugar

Cut up fruit and put into the blender. In a saucepan, mix water and sugar on medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Pour water/sugar mixture (simple syrup) into blender with fruit. Blend until smooth. Use a strainer and strain fruit/water. Put strained fruit into a bowl and chill in the refrigerator 2 hours. Pour into an ice cream maker and enjoy!

Lemongrass Pork Bowl

This has become one of our family's favorite dinners, and I thought I'd share the recipe! (Also, I'm putting it here for safe keeping.) Also, it's not really a recipe, so much as a gathering of foods in a bowl.

Lemongrass Pork Bowl (Modern Market copycat recipe)

Combine the following ingredients into a bowl. Drizzle the rice vinegar dressing on top and toss. 

• Pork Roast (cook in the crockpot and then shred. Add a little salt for flavoring, if desired)
• Pickled Red Onions (homemade recipe here)
• Shredded Carrots (steam)
• Cilantro
• Thin Cucumber Slices
• Jalapeños (optional)
• Toasted Peanuts
• Rice (We use Seeds of Change, Brown & Red Rice, which you can find at your grocery store and Walmart. It's already cooked, so it takes only a minute to microwave it.)

 
Rice Vinegar Dressing: (2-3 Tbs of dressing per person. Recipe below is for 6 people.)

• 1 cup rice vinegar
• Squirt of sriracha
• Squirt of lime juice
• Minced garlic
