I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Pork Chops and Cauliflower in a Creamy Pink Sauce




1 cauliflower, cut into flowerets
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsps olive oil
3/4 cup tomato sauce
3 or 4 boneless pork loin chops
2 sliced green onions
parmesan cheese

Béchamel Sauce
2 tbsps butter
2 tbsps flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 cup milk

Bring cauliflowerets to a boil in a large pot then simmer 5 or 6 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Make the béchamel. In a saucepan melt the butter then add the flour, salt and pepper. Whisk in the milk and cook 2 minutes on medium to thicken.
Stir in the tomato sauce for that pretty pink colour and set aside.

Lightly brown the pork chops in olive oil with the minced garlic. Add some of the green onion and remove from heat.

Coat an 8 X 11" baking dish with cooking spray. Spoon in the cauliflower, lay the pork chops on top and pour the sauce over all.

Sprinkle on the remaining green onion slices and some shredded parmesan cheese.

Bake uncovered at 350 F for 20 - 25 minutes.
Serve with a side salad
