Sage-Rubbed Pork Chops with Warm Apple Slaw - CEiMB

I finally made this for dinner yesterday. I know that I am almost a week late though. The mysterious illness that zapped the life out of my husband last week seems to have disappeared from our household. Knock on wood (Knock-Knock) he was the only one who got sick. We are thinking that it was some sort of food poisoning.

Back to the pork chops. The recipe was chosen by Jen and you can find the recipe at her blog HERE. Or on page 195 in Ellie's book.

I am still on the fence if I liked it or not. It certainly was not very filling. I should have made some sort of starch to accompany the meal. I only served the slaw and pork chops. Two hours after dinner I was starving and ran through Culvers on the way home from running errands to scarf down some french fries.

The dinner took a long time to prepare. There was too much cutting, shredding, peeling, etc. I did get some pre-shredded angel hair cabbage though. I think that it would have taken me much longer to prepare if I hadn't. I also wish that I had gotten boneless pork chops. I really hate all the fat on a pork chop. As for the taste of the dish, I actually liked the apple tasting slaw. The Hubster also thought that it was OK, just nothing fantastic.


COMING TOMORROW: Warm spinach and artichoke dip
