A long time ago, my dad did Atkins to lose a whole bunch of weight, and it worked for a little while, though I think Atkins is pretty terrible. Anyway, he would sometimes go to Chinese restaurants and order this boneless ribs, which I also loved. I don't think I've had them since I was little.
Anyway, I was at the supermarket today and I saw these boneless pork ribs on sale, so I bought them.
My philosophy with sauces is that you can take any dish that has a sauce, especially something like sweet and sour sauce, and make a salad that has all of those same flavors and be just as satisfied. (Note: this is often not true, and I may be lying to myself). It worked this time.
Anyway, here goes the recipe. It's delicious.
1. Chop up your pork ribs into thin slices. Put this in a pan on medium heat and stir it every once in a while. Prepare your vegetables as this is going on.
2. Take this much purple cabbage, and chop it up nicely so it looks like this:
3. Take two handfuls of baby carrots and put them in a food processor (I use a Blend-Tec, but I don't know if you can do this with a normal blender). Chop into fine pieces. Put in your bowl.
4. Take a pear and spiralize it. If you don't have a spiralizer, you should totally get one if you love produce as much as I do, but I'm sure this would be delicious simply sliced thin.
5. Take this much kale, and chop it up so it looks like this:
6. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar.
7. By now, your pork should be browned. Take approximately half a pound of it and chop it up into even smaller pieces. Add it to your salad. Toss everything around until you have a nice mixture.
8. Enjoy! It's very tasty.
Ok, now for the TL;DR recipe:
