In the meantime I brought the flavors of Amalfi into my humble kitchen using fresh ingredients from the local supermarket! Come join me in my kitchen for a delicious risotto… Continue reading

I love pecans in almost anything, but when I put them in this stuffing it just sent these chops to a whole new level. Making the simple pocket saves the struggle of stuffing the whole loin and is a simple solution for a quick dinner night. Stuffing the whole loin is great for a crowd, but the pocket is great for 2 -4 people for dinner! Continue reading
