A light sweet-and-sour sauce gently coats lean pork and mixed vegetables in this colorful stir-fry. Ginger and garlic give it zip, and pineapple adds a touch of the tropics. —Rebecca Baird, Salt Lake City, Utah

  3. In a large skillet or wok, stir-fry pork in 1 teaspoon canola oil for 4-8 minutes or until meat is tender. Remove with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
  4. Stir-fry the onion, carrots and ginger in remaining oil for 3-4 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Add the pineapple, red pepper and green onions; stir-fry for 3-4 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  5. Stir cornstarch mixture and add to the pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Return pork to the pan; heat through. Serve with rice if desired.
