Sunday Dinner and Movie

I love Sunday Dinner and a Movie on fall afternoons.

Even though yesterday felt more like June,

I had fun making dinner.

A new recipe in my head,

all ingredients in the pantry,

and

an afternoon to enjoy the process.

I made

St Emilion Pork Chops

(in the Crock Pot)

INGREDIENTS

1-2 tablespoons olive oil

1 Tablespoon of butter

5-6 oz Shiitake Mushrooms sliced

1 med onion sliced into thin rings

1 clove of garlic minced

1 can mushroom soup

1 envelope Lipton onion soup mix

1/2 cup of St Emilion wine (or a red wine you love)

( I always cook with the same wine that I will drink at dinner)

4-6 pork chops (your favorite cut)

METHOD

*spray crock pot with Pam*

Heat oil in saute pan on med heat.

Brown Pork chops lightly.

Put pork chops in crock pot.

In saute pan add 1T of butter to the oil,

garlic, onion & mushrooms.

Saute till onions are transparent.

In mixing bowl, add soups and wine.

Combine well.

When onions ate transparent, add everything from the saute pan

into the soup/wine mixture.

Blend well.

spoon over pork chops in crock pot.

Cook on low for 4-5 hours.

Serve with mashed potatoes and veggies.

We enjoyed dinner....and the movie was

Lauren hijacked my Netflix que a few weeks ago,

this movie was her pick.

We liked it. It was quirky and colorful.

It was perfect for yesterday.

Larry is out of town this week

and

I have a zillion things to do before he returns home.

My biggest project is,

cleaning my work table and area in the studio.

To be honest,

I am frightened that a mouse will hop out

at me while I am cleaning.

Merde.

Love you!

Me.
