THAI PEANUT PORK STEW ~ Kori Kosta

Cooper's recently attended the "Food and Nutrition" show in Pickering and Kori Kosta (the show's coordinator and Registered Dietition) created this wonderfully easy and flavourful stew with some of Cooper's own pork!!!  Perfect to set cooking in the slow cooker before heading to work!

Ingredients:

2 lb pork loin or shoulder

1/2 red bell pepper, cut into strips

1/4 cup ready-to-use teriyaki sauce

2 tbsp white wine vinegar

1/2 to 1 tsp cayenne pepper (to taste)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup frozen green beans, thawed

2 tbsp peanuts, unsalted and chopped

• Cut pork roast into 1" cubes.  Place pork, red bell pepper strips, teriyaki sauce, vinegar, cayenne pepper and garlic in a slow cooker.  Stir, cover and cook on LOW for 7.5 hrs.
  

• Add peanut butter and green beans, and stir until well-blended.  Cook for an additional 1/2 hr on HIGH.
  

• Serve over hot cooked rice or rice noodles.  Top with chopped peanuts and ENJOY!
