What to do with a pork steak and spaghetti sauce?

Aaaahhh, I can smell it, Spring, bbq season, baseball- summer is getting closer and closer.  As a teacher, this is very important :)  We had a fabulously busy Easter weekend.  What great fun we had celebrating Christ's ressurection with friends and family.  However, we now have many leftovers.  Here's a recipe using a leftover pork steak.  The pork steak I used was huge!  If you don't have a huge pork steak, use two small ones.  It's a great recipe for after grilling; we always end up with one or two pork steaks leftover!  This solves the problem of what to do with them in a new, delicious and very easy way.


Stuffed Pasta in a Pork Sauce
Ingredients:
1 Large Pork Steak
4 TBSP Creme Fraiche
1 and 1/2 Jars of Spaghetti Sauce
3 Bags of Stuffed Pasta (I used tortellini, ravioli and stuffed mostacolli)

1. Cut up pork steak into bite-sized pieces.  Put into a large soup pot.
2. Pour spaghetti sauce and creme fraiche in with your pork.  Stir.
3. Cook until warm and bubbly.  Keep on low until ready to mix with pasta.
4. Boil a large pot of water.  Cook all pastas together according to the directions on their bags. 
5. When finished, combine pasta and sauce.  Serve with a side of parmesean cheese.

** This recipe serves 6 to 8 people.
