Braised Pork Chops, Ranch Roasted Potatoes and Pea Salad 6.4.09

Braised Pork Chops

Pork Chops
Olive Oil
Garlic Salt & Pepper
Onion, sliced
Chicken Broth and/or water

Season the pork chops with garlic salt and pepper and brown them in the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and enough chicken broth or water to just cover the chops. Reduce heat and simmer until tender (half hour to 45 minutes).

Ranch Roasted Potatoes

Potatoes, peeled and cut into bite sized chunks
Olive oil
Ranch Dressing mix
Pepper

Drizzle enough olive oil over the potatoes to coat well. Sprinkle with Ranch dressing mix and pepper and bake at 400 degrees for about half hour or until tender, stirring once. Serve hot.

Mom's Pea Salad

1 can sweet peas, drained
1 tbsp dehydrated minced onion
Sweet relish or chopped sweet pickles
Mayonnaise

Combine the peas, minced onion, sweet relish (don't skimp!) and enough mayonnaise to bind. Cover and refrigerate at least a half hour. Serve cold.

This is an easy meal and very tasty!
