The food situation in this house is a bad one, friends. We’ve basically been living off of fast food. I mean, yes, I know… I JUST HAD A BABY. Good excuse, I think. But no. This must stop. We have to get back into the habit of, like, cooking and stuff. For our health, but mostly for our budget.
Cooking is like working out to me. When I stop doing it for a while, my physique suffers (because Wendy’s Pretzel Burgers), and I’m also scared to jump back in.
Anyway, I need to get over it. I’m hoping to get my act together enough in the next week to start meal planning again (or just sticking to the meal plan programs I subscribe to). I’ll also be taking the coupons the Pork Be Inspired campaign sent me to the grocery store next time to stock up on some meat.
Remember when I made that Summer Pork Chop Salad for the National Pork Board as part of the Pork Be Inspired campaign? Well, they sent me a really cool pack of goodies, including some very nice grilling tools and steak knives, along with some generous coupons and (Scott’s favorite!) a meat thermometer. (And that snazzy apron.)
And they want me to choose one of you to receive the same pack of goodies. So check out the 10 for $10 recipes and tell me which one sounds the best to you (no, you don’t have to pick my salad!). I’ll draw a random winner on Wednesday, August 28th.
Contest is closed! Congrats to Mark! Random.org chose comment #43. I counted the 23 FB comments first, and Mark’s was the 20th blog comment. Thanks to all for entering.

Dijon rosemary looks good!
I saw several that looked good, but clicked on Grilled Pork Spiedies because I wondered what the heck a Spiedie was. They sound really yummy and versatile, so I’ll make that my choice – followed closely by your salad 😉
I also liked the sound of the Speidies. I’ve never seen them before, and really like cooking with herbs.
Italian Inspired Stuffed Pork Chops. It was really hard to choose.
The Dijon rosemary looks wonderful 🙂
Grilled Orange Soy New York
Pork Chops with
Apple Ginger Cranberry Chutney
I’d say the rosemary-lemon pork chops. Yum!
It’s a toss up between your strawberry pork salad and the lemon basil grilled chops. They both look upper yum. If you forced me to pick one, I’ll go with the lemon, since in reality I always choose meat over salads!
The speidies!!! Over a nice big salad sounds pretty good right now
I am in love with Erin’s pork with zucchini and tomatoes.
I’m going to try out the lemon basil chops because 1) few ingredients and 2) I have some basil that needs to be used up! Thanks for the suggestion!

Dijon rosemary!
To be honest, yours sounds the best to me! I love a fruit and nut salad, and I think the pork would compliment it really well. Normally I would add a salty cheese like feta, but the pork would add the saltiness and warmth to the salad. Yummy!
