Having only 2 students today and one with a birthday, I had my 6 1/2 year old cook for my new 7 year old. However, I gave him only 30 minutes, 2 pounds of ground pork & full access to all fridges, gardens, freezers, pantries and told him to get crazy creative! 😆 After all, us cooks and Chefs seriously know that type of stress right?

Anyway, this is what he created and MAN was this dish freakin' delicious! EXCELENT work Dillan! Seriously, excelent! I could eat this weekly and never tire of it!
