Growing up, there were two canned food items that were always in our pantry: ranch-style and pork and beans. My stepdad loved having a can of pork and beans with his burgers, brats, and other summer main dishes. Ranch-style beans were a go-to side for our meals as well. This recipe, which I found in… Continue reading Ranch Style Pork and Beans

Chipotle Pork and Sweet Potato Stew
A miniature staycation can be just what the doctor ordered. Burnt out? Overwhelmed by housework? Stressed to the max? People aggravating you at work? I recommend taking an extended weekend. It will help you catch back up on housework and give you a nice reprieve from your job. I worked the Christmas and New Year's… Continue reading Chipotle Pork and Sweet Potato Stew
Pork & Apple Cottage Pie
The last time I posted a recipe for shepherd's pie, someone from England commented and said it wasn't a shepherd's pie. Instead, what I had posted, was a "cottage pie". So I researched both of the recipes to see if there truly is a difference. It's really just semantics. I found out both terms are… Continue reading Pork & Apple Cottage Pie
Secret Ingredient Smothered Pork Chops
You ever run across a recipe in an old cookbook and think, "there's no way that could work"? This happens to me A LOT. I've found Velveeta made into fudge (no way that could work!) and 'impossible' cakes made without eggs (how could that work??). But sometimes, just sometimes, it actually DOES work. This recipe… Continue reading Secret Ingredient Smothered Pork Chops
Maple Pork Sheet Pan Dinner
Of all the squashes in the world, delicata squash has to be my favorite. It's slightly sweet, slightly nutty, and the perfect ingredient for a fall dinner. It's so great you don't even have to peel it. I always eat the squash skin and all. If you can find delicata at your grocery store, I… Continue reading Maple Pork Sheet Pan Dinner
Pork Chop Parmesan
Do you ever have an idea and then instantly regret it when you put that idea into motion? That happened to me this weekend with this recipe. I didn't want to go to the grocery store so all the meals I meal prepped this weekend came from my fridge and pantry. I have a surplus… Continue reading Pork Chop Parmesan
Slow-Cooker Smothered Pork Chops
Since joining TikTok in 2020, I've found a handful of homecooks/chefs that I really enjoy watching. They're from all over the US (and world, I might add) and make a slew of different cuisines. I follow a guy in Ohio who makes all of his videos so interesting that I want to cook what he's… Continue reading Slow-Cooker Smothered Pork Chops
Pork Chops with Corn Stuffing
Oh boy, oh boy. Here we are again preparing for another winter storm. Last February's winter storm was DEVASTATING. Our pipes froze up in the kitchen and bathroom (no damage, thankfully), we lost some more limbs, and the snow came up to my knees. Oklahomans are NOT built for this. We aren't Michigan or Ohio… Continue reading Pork Chops with Corn Stuffing
Pork & Apples with Stuffing
I absolutely adore this time of year. The period of time between Halloween and Thanksgiving is my favorite time of year. There are pumpkins everywhere, people are starting to put up their Christmas stuff (me included) and Thanksgiving foods are placed at the front of the grocery stores. I'm well stocked up for the holidays… Continue reading Pork & Apples with Stuffing
Caribbean Pork with Pineapple Salsa
Pork tenderloin gets a bad rap. A lot of people grew up eating tough and dry pork, and that's a shame. It doesn't have to be that way. I'm a huge preacher of "don't overcook your pork!" I've said it countless times on here. You only need to cook pork to 145 degrees---that's it. Anything… Continue reading Caribbean Pork with Pineapple Salsa
