Spanish Pork Recipe

Pork is often called the "other white meat" but, even though we enjoyed cooking and eating pork, we never thought we could include it when we were "dieting". After trying this recipe and other recipes that use pork as its meat ingredient, we could eat pork again and still count calories.
