Easy peasy with ground pork
A lot of pork casseroles feature pulled pork. Instead of a recipe that required making a completely separate batch of pulled pork, we opted for ground pork in this casserole. Ground pork is cheap and adds a lot of savory flavor. It also mixes well with the potatoes and takes on the savory sauce, it’s really the perfect ingredient!
The sauce does it all
The sauce in this healthy pork casserole recipe is super simple, yet adds amazing depth of flavor. When you first mix it up you might ask yourself, is this enough sauce for this big casserole? The answer is yes – a little goes a long way and we didn’t want to overpower all of the other ingredients in the dish with the sauce.
How do you keep the zucchini noodles from getting soggy?
Zucchini noodles are full of water, so you’ll need to squeeze it out before you add them in to this recipe. If you don’t, the casserole will get kind of “soupy” when it cooks. It’s really easy, just wring out the noodles with your hands using a towel or paper towel to absorb the moisture. Pat them dry and they should be good to go!
What if I don’t have a spiralizer?
If you don’t have a spiralizer, you should really think about getting one! If you are on the Paleo or Whole30 diet, or just trying to eat more veggies, spiralizing vegetables is an easy way to make exciting dishes! We use the Paderno Spiralizer and love it. Alternatively, you can turn veggies into noodles without a spiralizer using the methods in this video.
