New Recipes

I am behind on posting my new recipes for this week and yes I have more than one. This week I tried out 3 new recipes but only 2 of them were keepers. I decided it is not worth it to post all of the steps on how to make these so I am just going to share the recipe, my changes/additions and a picture of my finished product.

Sliced Baked Potatoes

4 medium potatoes

1 tsp salt

2-3 TBSP melted butter

2-3 TBSP chopped fresh herbs

4 TBSP grated cheddar cheese

1 1/2 TBSP Parmesan cheese

-Peel potatoes if the skin is tough, otherwise scrub, rinse and pat dry.

-Cut potatoes into think slices but not all the way through. Use a handle of a spoon to prevent knife from cutting all the way.

-Place potatoes in a baking dish sprayed with cooking spray. Sprinkle with salt and drizzle with butter. I would use olive oil next time instead of butter. Sprinkle with herbs.

-Bake potatoes at 425 F for about 50 minutes.

-Remove from oven. Sprinkle with cheeses and return to oven until cheese is melted. I sprinkled mine with bacon bits first and then cheese.

Grilled Pork Chops

1/2 cup miracle whip (or mayo)

1 TBSP lime juice

1 TBSP fresh chopped cilantro

1 clove of garlic, minced

1 tsp chili powder

4 bone in pork chops or you could use boneless

Blend first 5 ingredients together. Put pork chops on the grill and brush each side with the sauce while grilling. Grill chops until they reach an internal temp of 150 F. I brushed some of the sauce on each side of the pork chops before we put them on the grill and let them kind of marinate. This sauce is delicious. I think it would be good on grilled chicken too.
