Sweet Bacon Chops

So I've been trying to think of a way to make sweet pork chops for about a week now and I decided to just try something! It was actually really good.

4 pork chops

16 slices Turkey Bacon

1 1/2 cups Tropicana Peach Orchard Punch

1 tbsp honey

1/2 tsp balsamic vinegar

1 packet Splenda with 1g fiber

4 tbsp I can't believe it's not butter

pinch cayenne pepper

salt

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and cook the bacon to a slight crisp. While the bacon is cooking mix the punch, honey, vinegar,splenda, and cayenne. Use a fork and punch many holes in the pork chops and let them sit in the mixture until the bacon is done. Line the bottom of the dish for the pork chops with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. Wrap 4 slices of bacon around each pork chop and place on top of butter substitute. Poor the left over punch over the chops and sprinkle with salt. Place in the oven and cook for 30-35 minutes.

This was a very tender and juicy meal! We made brown rice as the side and it went well together. Comment and let me know how you like it. :):)

Deer Roast

This is an awesome recipe for any busy day.

deer thigh
6 stalks of celery
1 1/2 bags corn
1 bag baby carrots
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp cayenne
1 tbsp celery salt
1 tbsp garlic salt
1 bag Green Giant Fresh
 Klondike Gourmet Petite potatoes

Combine all ingredience in a pressure cooker and set the time for 95 minutes. Release the pressure, open, and enjoy! :):) It was wonderful!

Brownies

I decided to try and make a cake/brownie without going off of anything. I think it went pretty awesome!

3 cups flour

1 1/2 cups brown sugar

2 cups sugar

1 stick Crisco

1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

3 eggs

1 cup 2% milk

1/3 cup hot water

4 tbsp Hershey's dark chocolate

Combined all ingredients and put in a baking dish that has been sprayed with baking no stick spray. Bake on 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

Ground Turkey & Sausage Tomato Sauce

10oz ground turkey
1 link of turkey sausage
1/2 cup tomato juice
1/2 4oz can of tomato paste
1/2 tsp celery salt
1 tsp garlic salt
tsp orageno leaves
pinch of cayenne pepper
and black pepper

Brown the ground turkey while slicing the turkey sausage. Poor everything else in and cook on stove top at medium heat for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. This goes well with brown rice or bowtie noodles.

Boneless Pork Loin Roast

I didn't really have anything in mind for dinner tonight but I realized that I had a boneless pork loin roast and decided to see what I could do with it. I decided to butterfly it and season with a little salt, pepper, and smokehouse maple seasoning and throw in some onions, garlic, and chicken broth. It turned out pretty awesome! Katelynn ate two plates so far, and she is still eating!!

Boneless Pork Loin Roast

1 2lb. Boneless Pork Loin Roast

2 cans chicken broth

2 small onions

4 cloves garlic

salt/pepper/smokehouse maple seasoning

You will need a 3qt casserole dish and a meat tenderizer. Butterfly the pork (which means to cut in half but leave it as one piece of meat) and beat with the meat tenderizer on both sides. Sprinkle a generous amount of salt, and freshly ground pepper, and lightly sprinkle with smokehouse maple seasoning (you can find this item at Walmart on the dry seasoning aisle). Dice onions into medium pieces, slice garlic and place in the casserole dish with the pork. Pour one can of chicken broth over the pork and place in the oven at 365 degrees and cook for 45 minutes. After 45 minutes remove from oven add the second can of chicken broth and continue cooking for about 30 more minutes.

You can make this with any side dish that you like but I chose steamed broccoli and asparagus!
