This was great! Love recipes that call for ingrediants that I have or can substitute easily with what is on hand. I had a boneless pork loin that I sliced into chops. No lemon pepper so I seasoned with Montery Chicken Seasoning. Boullon instead of stock. Used the dried cherries and berries mix I recently bought at Sam's Club. Served over rice. Everyone liked this, even the 16-year-old male child!

A very solid chili for a group, won't offend anyone. Those who want it spicier can add their own Tobasco sauce. I added garlic and a can of chili peppers, served over rice with cheese, sour cream and cilantro. I like my chili a little wetter, so used 2 cups of broth but I did not add the liquid from the black beans. For variety, I think I would add garbanzo beans, corn and chopped tomatoes. I will be making a few meals for over 100 people soon ~ I think this will be one of them!

Superb! Would do the finest resturant well. Used thick-cut boneless loin chops from Sam's Club. Based on recommendations, I used one medium sized apple per chop, added finely chopped walnuts to stuffing with a splash of balsamic vinegar, and browned chops in a pan before baking. I used the same pan for the sauce, giving it a lovely color. Only had white wine, no sherry, but it was just fine. Added leftover stuffing to sauce in the last minute. Served with mashed pototoes to soak up the lovely sauce.
