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
Roasted Pork Bites with Red Pepper Sauce
I haven't been using pork much lately and I don't know why. I love pork. It's ranked right up there with chicken in terms of meat entrees. I'll choose a pork chop or pork roast over a burger or meatloaf anyday. I spotted a massive pack of pork chops (6 pounds!!!) at Costco the other… Continue reading Roasted Pork Bites with Red Pepper Sauce
Honey Garlic Pork Chops
I've been browsing my expansive cookbook collection lately for inspiration. I've got dozens of vintage cookbooks packed full of old school jello and casserole recipes. I've been trying to find Christmas recipes and new dinners that are exciting and fresh and different. The only bad thing about those vintage cookbooks is for every good dinner… Continue reading Honey Garlic Pork Chops
Hoisin Pork Lettuce Wraps
I've been in the mood for lettuce wraps lately. I mean, I've been really craving them. I love using crunchy butter/Boston lettuce and wrapping up stuff like ground chicken, Thai-style vegetables and even just lunch meat. Lettuce wraps are always a super refreshing meal and great for a lunch when working at home. You could… Continue reading Hoisin Pork Lettuce Wraps
Smoked Pork Chop & Sweet Potato Bake
Woo. My whole life is packed up into dozens of boxes right now. I'm eating breakfast off of a paper plate and sipping coffee out of one of the two coffee cups I left out. We don't technically move until August 1st, but my husband and I have spent the last 5 days packing so… Continue reading Smoked Pork Chop & Sweet Potato Bake
Pork Tenderloin Salad with Grilled Nectarines
You all probably know by now how obsessed I am with pork tenderloin. I've been buying it up in bulk at the grocery store lately because it has been on sale. That's why you've seen so many recipes on here using the delicious cut of pork. I couldn't find any regular, unflavored tenderoin at the… Continue reading Pork Tenderloin Salad with Grilled Nectarines
Bavarian Pork Chop Bake
There are a lot of noises coming from inside and outside of my apartment. It's a busy morning in the city. Workers are hard at work building new patios on my neighboring apartments. A table saw buzzes in the distance. Bolo, my frisky Siamese cat, is sitting by the window cleaning his foot. The slurping… Continue reading Bavarian Pork Chop Bake
Pork and Sweet Potatoes with Spicy Cabbage
Pork tenderloins have been on sale at my grocery store lately so I've been buying them up. Tenderloin is probably my favorite cut of pork. As the name implies, it's super tender---but only if it's correctly cooked. Many times, home cooks will overcook pork and let it dry out. There's nothing worse than a tough… Continue reading Pork and Sweet Potatoes with Spicy Cabbage
