Recipe Tuesday: Italian Pork Chops

I love this crock pot recipe because (yup you guessed it) it is soooo good and so easy. Takes literally 5 seconds and your done.


Ingredients:
Pork chops What ever cut your family enjoys ( I use thin cut no bone)
Bottle of italian dressing

THAT'S IT!!! TOLD YOU IT WAS A NO BRAINER

I start these about 5 hours before we are going to eat.
Put the chops in the pot and cover with Italian dressing. You don't have to use the whole bottle just enough to cover them.

I start them out on High and about an hour or so turn them to low.

The dressing makes a sauce that is really good served with rice. the pork chops come out really tender and fall apart easily.

I serve this with rice (either white or rice pilaf)
Henry likes beans so I make them and usually green beans and a bread of some sort.

sorry I didn't get pictures of this I put it on and I was in a hurry.

Favorite Thing Thursdays: Zip up hoodies

Is anyone as excited about fall as I am? I love this time of year. Football weather I call it and it is slowly getting here. The reason I like it so much is because I can wear my hoodies. They have really grown on me over the past year, mostly because they help me hide my "BABY FAT". I also have noticed that I seem to be more cold natured than I used to be and these light jackets are just the right size to keet the CHILL off my bones!!!


Thank goodness for Fall because now I have an excuse to wear them!!

Recipe Tuesday: Peanut Butter Glaze

My WONDERFUL sis-in-law got me a long awaited bundt pan for my birthday. I have wanted one for a long long time. I made a chocolate cake yesterday and found a recipe for a glaze that I thought my family would like. We all love peanut butter so I think it made a big hit.

Ingredients:

powdered sugar

peanut butter

milk

I used 2 cups of the sugar

approx. 3 big tablespoons peanut butter

add milk table spoon at a time.

stir,stir,stir.

I made this the consistency easy to kind of drizzle on top of my warm cake and let it melt down the sides.

This was really good!!!
