We had no plan for dinner last night but I had this pork tenderloin that had been sitting in the fridge for three days. I wanted something simple, really simple. So I googled pork stir fry and this recipe from Taste of Home was the third in the search results. I had no time to think about it and anyway I had all ingredients at hand so I made it. I served it with coconut rice. There were no left overs. Have a wonderful weekend. My Friday is full of sunshine!!!!!
