    Italian Pork Chops Recipe

    A fresh bruschetta topping on little toasts is mighty tasty and oh so popular. It's even tastier when you give it a quick swirl in the same skillet you just cooked Italian Pork Chops in. The bruschetta takes on a buttery note with a hint of flavorful pan juices.

    Then top those perfectly seasoned juicy pork chops with that warm bruschetta topping and now we're talking!

    Pork chops with fresh tomatoes, oh yes, that's some mighty tasty food!

    This recipe is so versatile. Simply saute chicken, sirloin or your favorite seafood, make the bruschetta topping and it will be just as delicious!

    Easy enough for a quick weeknight dinner and fancy and impressive enough for entertaining too! What could be better?

    Left to Right: Grilled Salmon; Stuffed Peppers; Butter Chickn with rice; Mojito Shrimp

    When you’re in the mood for seafood, may I recommend Chipotle Honey Glazed Salmon With Pistachio Butter? Salmon fillets seasoned with just the right amount of spice and glazed over with honey and a touch of orange are topped with pistachio butter that melts down over the fillets after grilling. Also delicious when you bake the salmon in the oven!

    Mexican Quinoa Stuffed Peppers is an easy recipe that’s perfect for a weeknight dinner and Meatless Monday. Quinoa stuffed peppers take on a Mexican flair, bursting with a filling of quinoa, black beans, corn, tomatoes and salsa.

    Indian Butter Chicken combines warm spices with the simple ingredients of onion, butter, tomato and garlic creating tender chicken in a creamy tomato sauce. An easy chicken dinner that makes an impressive meal for entertaining too!

    Mojito Shrimp is a twist on the classic Mojito rum cocktail.  An easy marinade of mint, rum and lime, flavors the shrimp in just a few minutes. Grill or broil and you’ll have a fabulously delicious Cuban cocktail-inspired seafood dinner!
