Cumin Spiced Pork Chop w/ Cut Savory Green Beans with Mushrooms and White Potatoes

Dinner Tonight: Cumin Spiced Pork Chop w/ Cut Savory Green Beans with Mushrooms and White Potatoes



Cold Morning around here, around 9 degrees this morning when I ventured out to get the morning

papers. With colder weather all week they say. For Breakfast I had 1 medium size Egg (Sunnyside Up), 2 Jennie - O Turkey Breakfast sausage Links, a Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin, and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. A healthy and delicious start of the day! Caught up on all the major housework and laundry so it gave me time to take care of some odd and end jobs around the house. Cleaned rearranged the spare room, replanted a couple of Mom's plants, and cleaned and straightened some of the Kitchen shelves. For dinner tonight I prepared a Cumin Spiced Pork Chop w/ Cut Savory Green Beans with Mushrooms and Whole White Potatoes.
 


I'm using Pork Chops from the freezer that I had purchased from Costco. I got 1 of the Chops from

the freezer and let it thaw overnight in the fridge. Then to prepare my Chop I’ll need; The which consists of 1 tbsp Roasted Cumin, 1 tsp Garlic Powder, 1 tsp Chili Powder, 1 teaspoon Sea Salt, 1/2 teaspoon Hungarian Paprika, 2 teaspoons Dried Oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper. To prepare it preheat oven to 400°. Combine all the ingredients; rub it all over the pork chop. Let stand 20 minutes. Start by heating the Extra Virgin Olive oil in a Cast Iron Skillet over medium-high heat. Add Chops to pan; cook 3 minutes, browning both sides. From the stove to the oven and bake at 400° for 20 minutes until the thermometer registered 150° (slightly pink), turning after 5 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Fantastic combo of Spices, which makes one incredible Crust on the Chop with the inside being tender and moist! Love this seasoning on Pork. Hard to beat these Costco Pork Chops, always top quality.


For 1 side I prepared a new one, Del Monte Cut Savory Green Beans With Mushrooms. First time I
tried it, came across it at Meijer a while back and grabbed a can of it. To prepare just empty the contents into a small sauce pan and heat on medium until the liquid is boiled down and serve! I like this, good combo of the Cut Green Beans and Mushrooms. Makes a good side!






Then for another side I heated up a can of Kroger Brand Whole White Potatoes. Another just heat and
serve item. I also had a slice of Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread topped with a little I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. Had a Snapple Diet Peach Tea to drink. For dessert later a Skinny Cow Chocolate Truffle Ice cream Bar.
