After the power went out for a day and a half in my building due to the hurricane--I had to throw out all the food from my freezer. It had all defrosted so I didn't really have much of a choice!
I did manage to save one small package of center loin pork chops which I attempted to cook on one of the black out nights on top of my stove in an aluminum pan. I used the Raspberry Balsamic Glaze. I ended up having to slice up the pork in the pan in order to get it to cook thoroughly. The Raspberry Glaze tasted really good on it-(Baby, my cat even ate a few bites of it!)-BUT it was a fail! I need to try that again in my oven!!
The day after the lights came back on I went food shopping---what I managed to get was some hamburger (90%), some bottled iced tea (diet), eggs, ice cream (Chocolate Chocolate chip by Häagen-Dazs. I happened across a package of peppers-4 for $5.00. I picked them up also thinking that a Stuffed Pepper would be good for dinner that night! I also picked up some deli turkey for Baby and Swiss and Munster cheese for me!
I used the Everyday Blend spice on the hamburger. This spice comes in a grinder bottle so I just ground some and then mixed it with my hands. I choose the Green pepper-stuffed the hamburger into it (after cutting off the top of the pepper and removing the seeds!) Put some spaghetti sauce on top--wrapped it in aluminum foil--in the oven 350% until done. I think I left it in there for about 3/4 of an hour. One mistake I made-I forgot to mix some sauce into the hamburger so it was a bit dry.
Tonight was salad night once again, This time in addition to lettuce, tomato and mushrooms--I cut a yellow pepper up then drowned it all (not really) in the White Chocolate Lemon Peppercorn Vinaigrette.
Now--which pepper do you prefer--I can honestly say I prefer the Yellow---but I love them all!
