Your spicy rice and sausage sounds yummy. Do you have a recipe posted anywhere? I would love to try it. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great week...especially the chalupas! Yum!
ReplyDelete:)
Like Niki, I was going to say that the pork chalupas sound especially good!
ReplyDeletePlease see my March 31st post of family recipes for the Spicy Sausage and Rice recipe. I may include the Chalupa recipe tomorrow if I get permission from the friend who shared it with me.
ReplyDeleteMarcia, how do you prepare and cook your pork loin. I must be doing something wrong, because the ones I cook are tough. Sarah
ReplyDeleteI dredge my pork loin in flour and then brown it on all sides in a hot skillet w/ a little olive. Then, I place in the crock pot, salt and pepper generously,and leave on low for several hours til tender. Depending on my mood, I snip herbs from the garden and put on top of it; or make slits in the pork with a sharp knife and insert slivers of fresh garlic; or sprinkle w/ lemon-pepper seasoning. It depends, too, on what I'm serving with it. I love to fix red potatoes w/ parsley, butter and garlic salt for a side! Ben and I really like carrots roasted with the meat, as well.
ReplyDeleteHey, what a sharp-looking couple I saw in the paper recently! Happy 50th Anniversary to you and your hubby! Best wishes.
Thank you for the wishes.
ReplyDeleteI guess I have been cooking on too high a heat as I put it on the high on the crock pot and at that temp. in the oven. Thanks. Sarah
