I'm not a big fan of liver, but I really enjoyed these cretons. The liver flavor is very mild, and it's nicely balanced by the other ingredients.

These lighter cretons are a great way to use up leftover pork. I usually make a double batch and freeze half of it for later.

I love that these cretons are made with leaner pork. It makes them a healthier choice, but they're still just as delicious.

I was a bit skeptical about making lighter cretons, but I was pleasantly surprised at how good they turned out. They have all the flavor of traditional cretons, but they're not as heavy or greasy.
