Ellen Demmons, Director of Food and Nutrition Services RSU #21 has shared an idea for using the USDA ground pork. They made Stromboli's following the recipe in the USDA file. By using purchased wheat pizza dough balls, and used the ground pork seasoned with Italian spices in place of the ham. It was menued as Italian Sausage Calzone and served it with dipping sauce. Another recipe that is going on the menu soon is Fish Tacos. It uses unbattered fish which is what we can get as an NOI purchase. To view the recipe, click on the link below. FISH TACOS |
