I couldn't find my pork chops in the freezer so I used port tenderloin instead (we do our own butchering). This recipe tasted very much like spaghetti, so DD#2, who absolutely refuses to touch anything 'pork' actually ate it and went back for seconds. I thought my eyes were deceiving me, and then I decided no, she just doesn't realize it's 'pork'. I zipped my lips and sure didn't volunteer anything... The next morning, I quietly asked her, 'what is it about 'pork' that you don't like?' She responded, 'why, because I ate it last night? That was good...so what?!' I still didn't find out what she has against 'pork', but I did learn that I can apparently camaflouge it and get her to eat...oh, by the way...all 'picky eaters' and not so picky scarfed this one down. DD#1 about had a cow when I told one of the girls to give the little bit that was left in the pan to one of the dogs. She dished it up herself and put it away in the fridge for her breakfast yesterday morning. Thank you for sharing such a winner in my house Inez!!!

I have been very distracted lately, so I ended up making a few changes to this. I forgot to add the onion. I had accidentally used up one of my cans of tomatoes, so I added some tomato puree instead and simmered uncovered. I didn't add oregano (had run out earlier in the week). And, I almost forgot the mozzarella, so I sprinkled it over each serving. The recipe didn't suffer one bit for all my forgetfulness, and I will definitely make it again (the right way!). I served it over brown rice for the rest of the family, but it is very filling, and really makes 4 starch-free servings.

We really liked this! I used several cloves of minced fresh garlic in place of the garlic powder, diced an orange pepper (that's what I had on hand) and used sliced fresh 'shroons - everybody raved! I served it over angel hair pasta - rice would be good, too. Will be making this often this fall - thanks for posting such a good, low-carb recipe!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
