This easy recipe is very similar to the tonkatsu pork recipe. Baking reduces the fat. I just did these in our toaster oven so I wouldn't have to wait on the large oven for such a small recipe. They are quite bland, so after taking the picture ...

Today's dinner was inspired by this one on AllRecipes. It was indeed fast, and I'm sure it would be kid friendly. Just the thing for a couple slightly upset tummies :-P I served this with some quick braised brussels sprouts. Since they were so small, I ...

Tonight I made my pork tonkatsu and broiled some broccoli to go along with it. I managed to forget about it for an extra minute or two, and it got rather singed, which left an interesting flavor - not bad, but not something I'll replicate on purpose :-P ...

I've done the Italian Stuffed Pork Loin before with a full pork loin, but today I did it with just a pork tenderloin, cutting the filling ingredients in half. It cooked in about 45 minutes instead of over an hour, and was just as good :-) ...

This was a quick hearty breakfast constructed from yesterdays leftovers - a leftover hamburger patty and a couple biscuits. It can easily be scaled up to serve more, browning meat from scratch and adding seasoning as you like. If you prefer a country gravy, just replace the beef ...

Tonight I made my black bean and ham soup, using up most of the leftover ham from a couple nights ago. This time, instead of onion powder, I grated a small onion and sautéed it in a little canola oil. The fresh addition was nice, so I've rewritten ...
