This dinner was posted by cookpad member George, using Spam Lite, made from pork and chicken and starch. Thank you, George. However, Spam Lite is now over $5 a pound at Wallmart, So I made it myself, under $1 a pound, easy and quick to make, healthy and tasty. Freezes well.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
