New recipes!

Well, I'm making progress on #16 - making 40 new recipes. Here's the countdown so far:

Pumpkin Soup with Apple Cranberry Relish - pretty good, but not filling enough for the main meal.

Pork Chops with Apples and Polenta - YUM. With this one, I found out how much BETTER polenta is with BUTTER.

Chicken with Orzo and Goat Cheese Vinaigrette - Very good. And it cracks me up that my son, who won't touch iceberg lettuce or green peppers, LOVES goat cheese.





Last week - Balsamic Glazed Pork Tenderloin with Lentils and Apples (left) - thumbs up on the tenderloin. The lentils - eh, not bad.





Tonight - Cheese Ravioli with Brussels Sprouts and Bacon (right). Again - the boy won't touch most green veggies - but give him broccoli, cauliflower, or brussels sprouts, and he loves them (of course, everything is better with bacon!).
