When
the family gathers for dinner, serve up a meal that is both healthful
and delicious by adding the great taste of lean pork. Pork packs
nutrients in every lean serving. A 3-ounce portion of pork tenderloin, for example, is an
excellent source of protein, thiamin, vitamin B6, phosphorus and niacin, and a good
source of potassium, riboflavin and zinc, yet contributes only 6 percent of calories to a
2,000-calorie diet.
Pork
pairs well
with a wide
variety of flavors and food
groups, especially fruits and
vegetables. This collection
of nutritious recipes features
an array of good-for-you foods
that are heart-healthy and
delightfully delicious.
