Sauté pork chops and garlic until a touch of golden color appears. Deglaze the pan with a splash of wine. Cover (just barely) with a simple base tomato sauce. Add a few tablespoons of freshly chopped herbs like basil and oregano. Then, simmer over low heat until tender.

Potato Bread Home-made bread…. it’s one of life’s simple pleasures.
Several years ago, this simple recipe for potato bread was my introduction to baking bread from scratch. And, I have to say, it’s still a real winner. Potato Bread […]
This isn’t my favorite brand of tomatoes. Personally, I’d never use it for a marinara. But, it makes a perfectly acceptable base sauce. It has the added bonus of being easy to find. Wander into just about any Costco, you’ll almost always find a pallet full of these 6 lb […]
Southerners, avert your eyes if you must. This is a delicate, moist, crumbly, yet, somehow cake-y and SWEET cornbread. This is one of our all-time favorites.
