    Title: Stuffed Pork Chops
    Categories: Pork, Fruits, Chilies, Breads
    Yield: 6 Servings

    2 md Apples; coarse chopped
    7 tb Unsalted butter
    3 tb Light brown sugar
    1 ts Vanilla extract
    1/2 ts Ground nutmeg

    MMMMM-----------------------SEASONING MIX----------------------------
    1 tb Salt
    1 ts Onion powder
    1 ts Ground cayenne pepper
    3/4 ts Garlic powder
    +=OR=+
    1/2 tb Granulated garlic
    1/2 ts White pepper
    1/2 ts Dry mustard
    1/2 ts Rubbed sage
    1/2 ts Ground cumin
    1/2 ts Black pepper
    1/2 ts Dried thyme leaves

    MMMMM-------------------PORK CHOP INGREDIENTS------------------------
    6 Pork chops; 1 3/4" thick
    3/4 lb Ground pork
    1 c Pork or chicken stock
    1 c Chopped onions
    1 c Chopped green bell peppers
    1/2 c Finely chopped green onions
    2 ts Minced garlic
    4 oz Can diced green chilies
    1/2 c Very fine bread crumbs

    In a food processor or blender, process the apples, 4 TB
    of the butter, the sugar, vanilla and nutmeg until smooth
    about 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside.

    In a small bowl thoroughly combine the seasoning mix
    ingredients; set aside.

    Prepare the pork chops by cutting a large pocket (to the
    bone) into the larger side of each chop to hold the
    stuffing.

    In a large skillet, brown the ground pork in the remaining
    3 Tbsp. butter over high heat, about 3 minutes. Add the
    onions, bell peppers, garlic, and 2 Tbsp. of the seasoning
    mix, stirring well; cook about 5 minutes, stirring
    occasionally and scraping pan bottom well. Stir in the
    green chilies and their juice and continue cooking until
    mixture is well browned, about 6 to 8 minutes, stirring
    occasionally and scraping the pan bottom as needed. Add
    the stock and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir
    in the bread crumbs and cook about 2 minutes more,
    stirring constantly and scraping pan bottom as needed.
    Remove from heat.

    Sprinkle the remaining seasoning mix evenly on both sides
    of the chops and inside the pockets, pressing it in by
    hand. Prop chops with pocket side up in an ungreased
    13" x 9" baking pan. Spoon about 1/4 cup stuffing into
    each pocket; reserve the remaining stuffing.

    Bake chops with pocket up at 400ÂșF/205ÂșC until the meat
    is done, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Place the remaining
    stuffing in a small pan in the oven for the last 20
    minutes to reheat.

    Serve immediately with each chop arranged on top of a
    portion of the remaining stuffing.

    Title: Pumpkin-Pecan Pie
    Categories: Pies, Squash, Nuts, Pastry
    Yield: 6 Servings

    1 Unbaked 9" pie shell

    MMMMM----------------------PUMPKIN FILLING---------------------------
    1 lg Egg; slightly beaten
    1 c Pumpkin purée
    1/3 c Sugar
    1 tb Heavy cream, Half & Half or
    - whole milk
    1/2 ts Cinnamon; rounded
    1/4 ts Nutmeg
    1/4 ts Ground ginger

    MMMMM-----------------------PECAN FILLING----------------------------
    2 lg Eggs; slightly beaten
    2/3 c Light corn syrup (Karo)
    1/2 c Sugar
    3 tb Butter; melted
    1/2 ts Vanilla extract
    1 c Chopped pecans *

    * I've made this with (English) walnuts, as well. Tried
    it once with Black Walnuts but the pie was not so
    successful.

    This is an excellent pie. The layers remain separate
    and distinct, and the flavors compliment each other
    beautifully.

    Set oven @ 375ÂșF/190ÂșC.

    For the pumpkin layer, combine 1 egg, pumpkin, 1/3 c
    sugar, cream, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. Spread gently
    over bottom of unbaked pie shell.

    For the pecan layer, combine 2 eggs, corn syrup, 1/2 c
    sugar, butter and vanilla. Stir in pecans. Gently spoon
    mixture over pumpkin layer in pie shell.

    OPTIONAL: Place a layer of half nuts on top of the pie
    before placing in the oven.

    Bake for 50 minutes.
