Cooking the Deals of August 21-27
We had a busy first weekend home with our little girl, so I didn't have time to write up this post until today. Sorry to those who look forward to it on Sunday. I hope next weekend is a little more tame so I can get this posted earlier!Basic Burger Patties
This is a great idea to make when ground beef is on sale and freeze for later use.
Mexican Shepherd's Pie
We helped my brother- and sister-in-law move this weekend, and of course they fed us! My sister-in-law, Jacque, made these for dinner and it was excellent! She made them in individual ramekins and customized the hubbs' (he doesn't like cilantro), but you can make it in a casserole dish too.
Apple Glaze & Pork Chops
2 tbsp. oil
1 c. apple juice
2 tbsp. brown sugar
1 tbsp. corn starch
1 tbsp. cold water
2 sliced apples
1/2 c. sliced onions
2 tbsp. butter
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. rosemary
1/4 tsp. thyme
Brown pork chops in oil in a skillet. Add juice, 1 tbsp. brown sugar, salt, rosemary, thyme and cook 7-8 minutes (meat juices should be clear). Mix water & corn starch, then add to skillet. Boil for 1-2 minutes, until sauce thickens. In a separate skillet, cook the apples, butter, brown sugar, and onions on medium heat for 3-4 minutes, until apples are soft. Place pork chops and apples on each person's plate and pour sauce over all.
