Hi Everyone! Saturday is looking like a very good day. The boys and I will be taking advantage of "Brampton Day". City busses will only be $1 per person and there are activities in Downtown Brampton until 1pm or so.

Today's recipe sounds really yummy. Enjoy!

Hawaiian Pork Chops

4 rib pork chops, cut 3/4 inch thick
1 tbsp. vegetable oil
1-8 ounces can pineapple chunks, juice included
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. fresh, cracked black pepper
1 small sliced onion
1 medium green pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks
Cornstarch-water mixture

In large skillet, quickly brown chops in oil; drain fat.

Combine pineapple and juice with ketchup, salt and pepper; pour over chops, then stir in onion.

Cover; simmer 8 minutes. Stir in green pepper; turn and baste chops. Cover; simmer an additional 7 to 8 minutes or until chops are cooked through and tender.

To thicken sauce, gradually stir in mixture of equal parts cornstarch and water, simmering until thickened.
