Autumn Pork Chops

I made these a couple nights ago and this is a really great, fast and easy entree! I will make this again at some point.

I used apple cider instead of apple juice (not a huge difference). And I used dijon mustard instead of spicy brown.

I served this with rice pilaf and sugar snap peas. Super simple dinner in 20 minutes!

Here's the recipe

Perfect Pot Roast

At our house, we don't have very much red meat these days. But when I saw this being made on The Pioneer Woman on Food Network, I just had to try it. This pot roast is SO tender and yummy! This is a keeper recipe for sure! Perfect for when company comes over or on a Sunday afternoon. I made it because it was enough for 2-3 meals for us and I don't have much time to cook these days. :)

Here are my changes:

Omitted the onions

Didn't need as much broth and wine as what is listed. Unfortunately, I had already measured it out and had to pour the rest away. I think you only need about a cup of each unless you get a really huge roast.

Lemon Orzo with Asparagus and Tomatoes

I made this tonight for a vegetarian meal along with a light caesar salad and we both really enjoyed it!

Here are my changes:

Roasted the asparagus and tomatoes in the oven at 400 for 10 minutes before adding them to the salad.

Used a smaller pasta than orzo- not sure what it was called. But it looked like very small pearls.

I love these kinds of dishes because they can be served hot or cold. So you can just grab it out of the fridge when you're hungry. Perfect for a stay-at-home mom like myself. :)
