Flavorful recipe. - 9/19/20

The fat from the pork is enough. The stuffing mix takes the calories too high per serving for me. I like eating (chewing and tasting) too much to make this when I could just have a slice of pizza for less fat and calories. - 3/3/09

Yes, so true. This is not a health conscious recipe but with the newest study out showing to lose weight, just eat less calories I figured once in a while I could do this. I made it really for my DH who is not dieting. Then I have to know how many calories for MY nutrition so I post the recipe.
