Recipe: Garlic and Herb Pork Chops with Yams and Kale
The nice thing about being so determined to lose weight is that I am cooking more. This week alone I made hummus, applesauce, vegetarian chili, portobello burgers, and more. Tonight, I decided to make garlic and herb pork chops and yams with kale.What I liked about tonight’s meal is that it was quick and different. My husband and I always complained that hos family loved to make steak and salad but no other sides. This is definitely not that kind of meal
Everything was so good.
To Make the Pork Chops:
In a blender or chopper (I use the Magic Bullet), combine:
- 9 cloves of garlic
- 2 shallots
- olive oil (about .5 cup)
- sage
- fresh basil
- rosemary
- a little water or balsamic vinegar
Chop until everything is very fine. If it is too thick add more water or vinegar. Pour into a large Ziploc bag with 3 Bone-in Porkchops. Seal the bag and work the mixture until it coats the chops. Grill or oven bake on till done.

this looks awesome too ok so now are you going to cook for me when I have surgery?,,,,,lol I will be armless for a few weeks,,,,,lol
no problem!
Yummy that looks really good and the recipe looks simple.I think I might try this! How do you like the Magic Bullet? I have been thinking about getting one.
It was delicious. Let me know if you give it a try and if you like it. As for the bullet, it’s great for smoothies. I am not a fan of it for chopping b/c I have not figured out how to do it without turning everything into mush, but that probably has more to do with my impatience and less to do with the actual product.
