Savory Apple Pork Chops
we tweaked it a bit. I emailed this recipe to my husband to get started before I left work. He took the recipe, eyeballed all the ingredients instead of measuring and used Jack Daniels BBQ sauce instead of ketchup. He reduced the amt of sauce to just a simple glaze, and cut apples in 1/8th's instead of thin slices. He servied it and it was AMAZING. Flavors were great, the bbq roasted apples were VERY flavorful and fun. the boneless thick pork chops were SUPER juicy and perfectly done. cooked for about 40 min I think - our oven isn't the greatest - might take less time for you. Served w/ brown rice and green beans. Will be a staple in our home for making pork chops.

Tangy Slow Cooker Pork Roast
this is the best pork recipe I've found on this site. I adjusted as follows - halved recipe for just 2 of us - skipped onion (didn't have fresh and we don't care ALL that much for it), skipped salt altogether - used 1 tsp cayenne pepper instead of hot sauce. threw in a bit of worchestire sause cause we love that flavor. dbl'd black pepper. SO juicy, nice kick without overpowering pork - served with mashed potatoes and green beens, used left overs as pulled pork sandwiches - truly an awesome recipe - will definitely be keeping and using often.

Curried Butternut Squash and Pear Soup
made a few changes for time/ease - used prepackaged diced steamable squash - cooked for a bit in the microwave then threw it in - used canned pears - put in just enough to heat through since they were already soft - added a touch of cinnamon. was very happy with it - will maybe try it fresh next time instead of canned - just didn't want to go through all that extra work if I wasn't going to like it. Hubby doesn't care for curry, but he was able to eat it - I loved how the curry cut the sweetness - didn't really notice the pear, but again, used canned and might have been overpowered by more squash than called for. Overall, a good soup I'll make again.
