Brandy Chops De Pere

⁽²⁾

Tasty, easy to prepare, brandy recipe for boneless pork chops. Best with 1" thick chops, a leafy spinach salad with walnuts, rasberry vinaigrette dressing with a dash of balsimic vinegar, and a glass of dark earthy Merlot. One of my favorite discoveries.

Mom's Noodle Casserole

This is a very hearty and delicious cassarole!! My "fussy" eater who doesn't like tomato dishes, soups, gravies or just about anything else even loves it. My husband made it his special request for Father's Day. Definately worth trying. Oh, and there is no need to "doctor" it. I did add black pepper because we like a little more spice, but even this didn't bother Mr. Fussy. Thank you for sharing this!
