It’s Taco Tuesday! In reality Tacos Al Pastor are made on a Spit…pork is grilled on a rotisserie and the meat is sliced off like they do when serving a Gyro…but I don’t have a Spit…or a rotisserie even…so I make mine in a slow cooker. No hassle…just delicious! Continue reading

Moroccan-Spiced Pork
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a huge fan of Mediterranean cuisine. They love mixing sweet with savory and by combining these flavors you get something really unique…on today’s menu is a pork dish inspired by the flavors of Morocco. Pork is not the usual meat in Morocco…lamb, beef, chicken and fish are very popular there but I’ve spiced up some pork instead! Come along with me to Morocco… Continue reading
Pork Scallopini with Roasted Lemons

I’ve eased up on the flour by dusting instead of dredging and roasted the lemons until they are edible and flavorful. They add the perfect punch of flavor to this classic dish. Continue reading
