So this is what we had for supper last night, from 2 different magazines...it was a very yummy fall meal, all told. While we were eating I put a batch of cookies in the oven, so we had warm (nestle refrigerated cookie dough) Turtle cookies for dessert. It was a very cozy domestic day. Also it was our anniversary and Stevie only worked a half-day, and it was so nice having him home!! Anyway the pork chops are from Kraft Food & Family Fall 2008 and the corn is from Simple & Delicious July/Aug 2008.
Pork Chops with Apples & Stuffing
1 pkg (6 oz) stove top stuffing for chicken
1 can (21 oz) apple pie filling
6 boneless pork loin chops (1 1/2 lbs), 3/4 inch thick
Heat oven to 375. Prepare stuffing mix as directed on package. Spread pie filling into bottom of 13x9 baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; top with chops, then stuffing. Cover with foil. Bake 30 minutes; uncover and bake for 10 more minutes or until chops are cooked through.
Can you believe how easy that is? And it was so so yummy. The apples tasted so good with the stuffing, and the pork was moist. Everyone liked it except Nathan. So we call that a hit. It's definitely a keeper. We had it with the following corn...
Buttery-Onion Corn on the Cob
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 envelope onion soup mix
4 medium ears sweet corn, husks removed
In a small bowl, combine butter and onion soup mix; rub over corn. Place each ear of corn on a 12x10 inch piece of foil (I put the corn on the foil first, the rubbed the butter mixture over the corn--less mess). Fold foil over corn and seal tightly. Bake @ 450 for 15-20 minutes or until corn is tender, turning once.
So Sam and Emma did not like the onions on the corn, but Steve and I did. It was so yummy and perfect. I have not had good luck with fresh corn in the past, but this was so easy and took the guess work out of "how long to boil? Should we grill it for like 3 years?" So this one is a keeper as well. 2 hits in one night. Wow.
