In fact, it was also supposed to be a Sweet and Sour Pork Stir Fry.
Although the stir-fry looked awesome (you can see a picture of it on the Cookapalooza facebook page) it was surprisingly bland which was a big let down. It's going back to the kitchen for further tweaking. I’ll post it when I figure out what went wrong.
In the meantime, how about a Pina Colada Caramel Smoothie?
I added the caramel sauce because I've been adding it to just about anything that resembles a dessert this summer.
I’m not kidding!
Now it’s in (and on top of) this Pina Colada Caramel Smoothie!
So how about it…you want one?

This sounds delicious to me - I'm a big caramel fan! I've had many a recipe that looks so pretty on the plate, but lacks a little something. The great thing about being a cook is we get to try again, right? Have a good week!
