I am constantly on the search for something new to make for dinner to keep the pizazz in our meals. Trying to be budget-friendly and healthy can often be a roadblock to "new and different". Last week, my husband made the grocery store run for me; I knew the items on my list would make it, at least versions of those items. Phil is extremely budget conscious. We are a good balance to each other that way (ok, without his frugality I would be in debt up to my eye balls). When he shops, he ALWAYS finds a few extra good deals. At this trip, he happened upon a smokin deal on pork chops. He bought a lot of pork chops! First I made mustard and rosemary pork chops with grilled potatoes. A few days later I simply salt and peppered the pork and slapped it on the grill with some corn and lime butter. Then I was kind of done with pork chops. Honestly, I don't usually cook pork. Later that week I needed a quick meal that I could pull together from the pantry. I noticed the pork. My mind was blank with regards as to how to prepare it, but I had 10 chops left (I told you he bought a lot of pork) and 7 adults to feed for dinner, plus 6 kids. I decided to search the grilling section of The Food Network (foodtv.com) recipes. I love the reviews and chefs. It was an inspired thought. I found a recipe for Grilled Pork with Arugula and Grape Salad . I didn't have the arugula on hand, but I did have endive and escarole washed and in the fridge. This recipe was SO easy and SOOOOOO delicious I seriously wanted to lick my plate. It was great! I even made it a few days later for a friend who had just had a baby just so I could make extra dressing to make the salad for my lunch (I skipped the chops for myself as I was a little porked out). Everyone who has tried this dish has raved about it! I suggest any time you are in the mood for a great meal, try this one, and if you need help finding a new recipe to try while shopping in your pantry, try foodtv.com. You will be inspired!...Amy "You nurse to give your baby the best, let Modest Middles help you look great doing it!"
