Delicious dinners shouldn’t be limited to the weekends. Even though I love to cook, I’ll even admit that most weekdays I’m looking for the quickest dinner possible.
Now that we’ve moved closer into town and I am actually getting home at a decent hour I can start making dinner before 7:30pm! YAY! I can start dinner at about 5:15pm now but that doesn’t mean that I want to still be cooking at 7:30pm!
Oh and I don’t know if you noticed or not but Today is Valentines day. Which means you’re probably going out to dinner or your planning on making something special at home for your sweetheart. If you’re still looking for that perfect dinner, this one is always a hit here! ….That is if you’re celebrating Valentines…. if not.. um…. sorry.. You can be my Valentines and I’ll make dinner for you 🙂
BigBear is actually “drooling” at this post as I’m writing about this Pork chop, I have a feeling I know what he wants for his Valentines Dinner. Thankfully this is a 30 minutes meal 🙂
