Made this tonight with roasted butternut squash instead of the white sweet potato fries — it was soooo amazing! Thank you for such a great recipe!
awesome! glad you liked it terry!
So glad you came up with this plate of deliciousness. I seriously could not stop eating it. Thanks for yet another amazing recipe!
This was perfect: easy to make and SO delicious! Thank you for sharing!
The only things I did differently were: mix the pork seasonings/ingredients in a little bowl together first before mixing it into the pan with the pork. I also added some sliced red bell pepper and chopped up some basil to add since I had both at home. Can’t wait to eat my leftovers!
(confession: this was my first time cooking ground pork and it certainly won’t be my last!)
awesome!! so glad you liked it, becca!
I made this for lunch today and it was SO GOOD. My husband wants it added to my regular cooking rotation now.
awesome!! glad you liked it, jena!
These are so awesome and have been a staple in our house for a long time. Even my husband who often complains about our dinners being too paleo loves this one!
The only thing, unless you like really really really hot food, I’d suggest cutting the spice to at least a third of what this calls for. I’m not a total spice wimp but also don’t like blazing hot and the few times I’ve forgot to modify the spice these were almost too spicy to eat!
hahaha that’s so funny because i don’t find this recipe spicy at all! but so happy to hear that you both love it!
This is one of my go to recipes. I use cut up chicken breast instead of pork and love it! Thanks for creating recipes so amazing that I make them over and over again!
awesome!! glad you liked it Shireen!
I’d love to try this soon but I can’t seem to find white sweet potatoes anywhere. Can they be substituted with something else? 🙂
you can use any sweet potatoes you find! i just prefer the taste of the white sweet potatoes
We love this recipe!!! We skip the cucumbers on top because we’re lazy. We make tons of the sriracha mayo for on top. Seriously… double the normal recipe, quadruple+ the sriracha mayo.
I’ve been making this recipe for years (made it tonight, in fact!) and it’s still one of my all time favorites!! I’ve introduced it to so many people who have fallen in love with it – it’s always a hit! Just wanted to come leave some love for this deliciousness!
awwwww thank you for sharing!! love that you’ve been making this recipe for years!!
