Gingered Pork Fajita Wraps



So I have leftover stragglers in the fridge … piece of cabbage, a few carrots, a half of an onion in the crisper, a cup of cooked white rice. (Now I know why you get free white rice whenever you buy Chinese food … there’s always so much leftover from when they make the fried rice). It’s too hot for soup and we’ve had our fill on Cole slaw with this and Cole slaw with that. What to do what to do?



1 lb pork tenderloin, thinly sliced
1½ tsp fresh ginger, minced
4 small carrots, shredded
½ small cabbage, shredded
½ onion, chopped
1 small green pepper, chopped
1-2 Tbsp soy sauce
2-3 flour tortillas
¼ cup Asian sesame dressing
¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
½ tsp fresh ground pepper
1 cup cooked white rice
1 Tbsp oil




In wok, cook pork and ginger in oil until pork is lightly browned and no longer pink. Add carrot and cook 1-2 minutes; add onion, green pepper, cabbage and soy sauce. Cook until vegetables are tender. Sprinkle with pepper and add sesame dressing and fold in rice.

Heat tortillas in microwave, wrapped in paper towels for 30 seconds. Scoop mixture into tortillas and top with cheddar cheese. Wrap tightly and voila…din din.

There are plenty of leftovers for the next day’s lunch.
