Promise you won't laugh if I tell you a secret? I've never cooked with ground pork. I don't know why it had never occurred to me before, it just hasn't been a part of my repertoire, but in my year-long quest to find fabulous one pot recipes and share them with you, I've come across a delicious bistec con aceitunas Iberia a la cazuela that uses ground pork and has me slapping my head in disbelief because it never occurred to me that ground pork could be as versatile as say, ground beef. Live and learn, my friends. Better yet, live, learn and eat something yummy!
I think you and your whole family will appreciate this simple ground pork and green olives one-pot recipe, especially if you've already been cooking with ground pork.
