I'm Lovin' Spicy Grilled Pork Loin w'Cherry Demi-glaze this Foodie Friday

 

 

 

 

 

Cherries are in season right now and since I cannot eat them raw…(sends me right to the emergency room :)…this week I decide to adapt a recipe in my kitchen studiothat I recently saw in a magazine for a fresh cherry salsa and turn it into a marinade that becomes a demi-glaze!  I'm so lovin' it this Foodie Friday to be able to share my recipe for Spicy Grilled Pork Loin w'Cherry Demi-Glaze ;)

GATHER YOUR INGREDIENTS:

• 3-4 lbs. Boneless Pork Loin
• 2-3 Whole Limes (or 6 Tablespoons lime juice)
• 1 medium/chopped Onion  
• 1 whole/diced Jalapeño Pepper
• 1-2 cups fresh/pitted/diced Cherries
• ¼ cup Olive Oil
• 1 cup Apple Juice (or white grape)
• 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar (light or dark)

Lovin' It In the Studio with Grilled Asian Chops this Foodie Friday

 

 

 

 

 

This week I'm back In the Studio (my kitchen studio that is ;) here at the Love Shack...taking a break from all that techy stuff!  I'm really Lovin' It this Foodie Fridaywith a great grillin' recipe for this upcoming holiday weekend.  This recipe is FAST and easy to follow (my favorite kind of cooking...yummy, fast and east ;) and would be great to take along with you to a backyard barbeque!

Grilled Asian Chops

 
Seriously...it takes longer to gather your ingredients than it does to grill the meat!  The longest part of this recipe is waiting for the meat to marinade...and the longer you marinade it the better it tastes...so my advice is to fix it and forget it!

Foodie Friday: Brownie Pops...I'm Lovin' It...NOT!

What was I thinking...NO...what where THEY thinking!  The Wilton folks that is...when they designed these Brownie Pops?  I believe that they were trying to get in on the current industry craze with Cake Pops when they designed a cake pan mold for these Brownie Pops.  AND I bought into it ;P

 

Magically Delicious Bars

Magically Delicious because they are NO BAKE

It's Foodie Friday today and I'm Lovin' It because this is such a quick and easy recipe that tastes somewhat like the original Magic Bars but are easier to make because they are no bake like S'mores Bars.  You can make them holiday related by adding Green Marshmallows (if you can find them) or by simply sprinkling them with holiday sprinkles...either way they are Magically Delicious ;)

Orange Glazed Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

Before the holidays I got a new cookbook, More Fast Food My Way, by one of my favorite European chefs, Jacques Pepin.  Now the reason why I mention European is because I love the way most European chefs cook with REALfoods that are fresh and in season as opposed to a lot of American chefs...many of which are on the Food Network...whom use prepared foods that are canned and/or frozen and full of additives and preservatives.  The following recipe for the stuffed pork tenderloin is inspired by Jacques recipe in his cookbook...only I've jazzed it up a bit by adding my own sauce...yummy in my tummy ;)
