marinade for pork chops or steak...by tennille created by tennille
One day i was really bored. I decided to try something different. I had tons of strawberry jam...dont laugh it was surprisingly very very good on steak and pork chops...all i did.... I took about 3 heaping tablespoons of strawberry jam and then mixed it up with just plain water....then I added lemon pepper into it and some chopped sweet onions into the mixture then I took my pork chops and fried them up tell they were a nice gold brown on both sides then placed them into a casserole dish and poured the jam mixture on top then i placed it in a preheated oven set at 350 for about an hour as always you want to make sure its done...this was both amazing on steak as well as pork chops...however with the steak i also added a little oil with it so it gave it more flavor

south of the border tamales
one of the blessings of speaking fluent spanish is being able to make spanish food
2 cans of whole kernel corn drained....my secret i use cream style corn it gives it better flavor
2 tablespoons water
2 cups of masa harina corn tortilla mix
3.4 cup warm water
1.4 cup corn oil
2 tbls sugar
8 large dried corn husks
1 cup 4 ounce can diced green chili peppers drained
in a blender or food processor pulse blend or process the corn and 2 tablespoons water until coarsley pureed. In a large bowl stir together the pureed corn masa harina 3.4 cup water oil and sugar until a soft moist dough forms...if using the cream still corn add about a cup more of the masa..the dough should look like a soft cookie dough. If the dough is too dry add additional warm water 1 tbls at a time...set aside. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add the husks and reduce the heat. Simmer uncovered about 5 minutes or until soft. Drain. To assemble the tamales place each husk on a flat surface with its shorter tapered point towards you spread 3 to 4 tablespoons of the dough on eash husk begining 3.4 inchues from the top and ending at least 1 1.2 inches from the bottom point leaving a 1.1.2 inch border at the sides. Sprinkle 2 tbls of the cheese and 2 tsp of the chili pepers down the center of each. Fold the sides of the husk up and over the filling then fold in half to bring the top and bottom ends together and tie them closed with a piece of string. In a large skillet with a tight fitting lid place the tamales on an opened steamer basket or on a wire rack. Add enough water to the skillet to cover the bottom of the skillet making sure the water sits below the basket or rack.......note...you can add whatever you want in the center of your tamales i usually like to make chicken sour cream cheese and anything spicy with it but you could add pork or whatever you want just be sure that your meat is all precooked and shreeded before you add it with your tamales...hope you enjoy

7 to 10 saltine ritz crackers or bread
1 egg beaten
1.2 cup chopped onion or dehydrated onion...i used dehydrated and it turned out great
1.2 cup milk
1 tsp salt
1 tsp worcestershire sauce...i was out and used soy sauce instead and it turned out great

I put some rice in my rice cooker and we had the meatballs served on top of the rice served with vegtables and my picky 9 year old son loved it how ever i was thinking you could easily serve these on top of egg noodles or mashed potatoes or if you wanted to make just the meatballs and omit the sauce and for the sauce instead put tomato sauce on top and then bake it you could easily served these with spaghetti as well.....enjoy i know i will be making these again so yummy
