Cabbage Ramen Salad
So refreshing and colorful! Great as a side dish or a salad on its own. A 'slap-chop' works great if you have one. When I bring this to a party, I keep the oils, veggies, seeds, ramen, and sugar in separate bags until it's time to mix and serve. It tastes better to me when I don't mix the sugar with the oil right away.
Marinated Spicy Pork Chops
This tasty marinade comes together in minutes and can also be used for steak or chicken! To save time, prepare the marinade in the morning and grill the pork when you get home from work.
The Best Parmesan Chicken Bake
This Parmesan-style chicken bake is done casserole style (so, no breading or frying!), but still offers up that irresistible combination of tender chicken, crunchy-cheesy coating, and flavorful sauce.
