Double Down

Season 7 Episode 704 | 26m 46s

This week’s mantra is “cook once, eat twice.” Day one starts with a spicy roast pork that’s easy and delicious. Day two, that pork is transformed into a Vietnamese banh mi sandwich. On day three, dinner is Peruvian baked chicken thighs that are transformed into chicken and tomatillo nachos. On Ask Sara, Sara answers a viewer’s question on the best way to get kids involved in the kitchen.
