Today ( and the rest of the days) book it Everything On A Waffle by Polly Horvath. I really, really enjoyed this book. The main character who is a young, optomistic girl, has an old, mature voice for her age. This allows for the book to be enjoyable for kids and adults and everyone in between. I made the cherry pie pork chops, the boiled potatoes, and the chocolate covered cashews. I loved the recipes in this book and there will be more to come.
Pork Chops:
Cherry pie filling (homemade or canned)
Pork chops (however many you want, I used four and had plenty of ingredients left)
Salt, pepper
Pineapple juice
Preheat oven to 325 degrees
Take a skillet and put a bit of oil in it (any oil will do really). Then sear the pork chops in the pan. Put a sprinkling of salt and pepper on the pork chops.
*Hint: Don't overcook, the meat will only be browned on the outside...It will NOT be done yet.
You can either use you skillet or use a baking dish (this is what I did). Put about a quarter inch of fruit juice (ex: pineapple juice) in the baking dish. You should then put the seared pork chops in the pan and smooth about a spoonful of cherry pie filling onto the top of each pork chop.
Cover and bake for one hour.
Take out carefully and allow to cool, the juice will be boiling.
Sauce:
Sour cream
pork juice (no really, it's good)
Scoop a cup of sour cream into a bowl and add some of the juice and grease from the pork chops into the sour cream. Add juice until the sour cream becomes sauce-like.
Put this on top or under the pork chops, depending on how fancy you want your chops to be.
