Clean Pork and zucchini

What's on the menu for you tonight!? Why not give this easy clean recipe a try!

It won't disappoint. 

Fire up the grill (ok we use a charcoal grill so it takes a while! call is crazy but thats what my husband likes.). 
Then begin cutting your zucs!  I like to use both yellow and green.  The green ones came straight from my garden!! Yay ( I love being able to go out in my back yard and pick fresh veggie, herbs and fruit!) 

  I slice mine very thin 

Once they are all sliced I cube my onion into small pieces. You need less than half of an onion this size!! 

Once all is chopped throw into a large pan with olive oil coating the bottom. 

I had a large pan full so I added a little extra evoo on top 

 
Cook on medium low heat and stir frequently. 

Once that's in the pan the grill should be ready to cook your pork! 
I first made a seasoning to sprinkle over it
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder 
1/4 tsp celery seed 
1/2 thyme 
1/2 tsp garlic salt 
Salt and pepper to taste 



I sprinkled the meat with the seasoning on both sides and grilled away! 
As that's cooking remember to turn your zucchini until all is translucent in color 
Once they are soft and look like this they are done!! I season with light garlic salt and added in some of my spicy oregano (chopped) from my garden 
This is optional.  I felt like adding a little zing to my zucs tonight. 
 
Serve up and enjoy!! 
Remember when eating although its clean, serving sizes are still important.
The protein (meat) should be the size of your palm. And  your veggies should be at least a cup! 

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!! Let me know what you think !
