So the boyfriend (TJ) had me buy Porkchops the other night...i don't really care for porkchops, but he had me buy two, stick one in the freezer, one in the fridge so i had to find something to do with them!
Internet was down, so i headed to my recipe books (only have a few of them, really) and pulled out "cooking healthy with a man in mind", went to the back, found "pork" and read the recipes.
This one stuck out, so i made it...its only got 4 ingredients, and i only had to spend an additional 55cents to buy the tomato soup...
4 4 ounce pork tenderloins (i had three, so i used them)
1 can health request tomato soup (i used the condensed store brand kind...hey! i'm cheap!)
1 cup chunky salsa (used medium, that was TJ's request)
1 tsp dried parsley flakes (i just shook some over it, it tasted fine)
spray large skillet with cooking spray, or use olive oil like i did, brown meat on both sides. In a bowl, combine other ingredients, stir. Pour over pork, cover, simmer for 20-25 minutes. Place 1 piece of meat on plate, spoon sauce over the top.
Its really really good; i'll do it again sometime :)

more groceries?!
had clinicals last night, but before hand, i went to aldi's and got the rest of my groceries - went over budget by $3, but i "made up" the money via popcans that i returned after class, so its all good. except my bank account is smaller :(
but i made white chicken chili today, put it in the crockpot to heat it up...i guess i coulda done it in the stock pot, but i don't know if its big enough, and they're both dirty...doesn't help :P
i cooked chicken breasts, about 3 or 4 of them, and shredded them with two forks (cuz they were boiling hot!) and put 1/2 jar med salsa, 1/2 jar mild salsa, 1 48oz jar randalls northern beans (white kind) (i'm sure you could soak your own; i'm not THAT ambitious...), mozz cheese, 1 tsp cumin and chicken broth. i do use the juice from the beans, and add broth as needed. i did add too much broth, but TJ was "ok" with it.
he said its to be added to the "keep" list...:D adding salsa instead of using individual items like jalapenos, tomatos, etc, saves LOTS of time :D
