Pork Chop and Rice Casserole
This simple pork chop and rice casserole recipe was handed down to me by my grandmother. She was a fabulous cook who could master elaborate dishes, but she also taught me how to make some easy and delicious meals. Slow baking makes this a 'fall-off-the-bone' dish with even tougher cuts of pork!
How to Cook Trout
This trout recipe is so simple, it doesn't even have a name. I just call it Trout. This is such an easy weeknight seafood dinner. It's a really nice way to cook fish, especially if you're new at cooking it.
