5. Low-Calorie Pulled Pork Sandwich
PER 1 SERVING: 430 calories, 18 g fat (5 g saturated fat), 540 mg sodium
If you’ve ever ordered a pulled pork sandwich, there’s a good chance you’ve bitten into it and immediately tasted that the pork has been drenched in an overly sweet sauce that’s just filled with sugar. So in our recipe, we go for the more traditional North Carolina-inspired version, dressing this pulled pork with nothing more than a bit of spicy cider vinegar, bringing an intense flavor to a sandwich that is light on calories.
6. Porchetta-Style Roast Pork Loin With Lemony White Beans

We took some cues from a classic Italian staple in this dish. See, porchetta is a whole suckling pig stuffed with fennel and herbs and roasted until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. We didn’t go with the whole pig, but applied the same flavor-packed treatment to a lean piece of loin.
