| Just a bit of garlic, cumin, and citrus makes a delicious marinade for light and lean pork. Try using whole-wheat rolls to boost the fiber intake of these tasty mini sandwiches. This recipe feeds a gang, but you can also freeze half of the pork for another night. Cuban-Style Pork Sliders PREP TIME: 15 MINUTES TOTAL TIME: 4 1/4 HOURS SERVINGS: 12 | |
