Yummy Apple Recipe

Do you have a lot of apples in your house, like we do? Getting tired of just eating them raw. Well, I found a great recipe in All You magazine. We had last night and it was yummy!

Pork Chops and Apples

Prep time: 10 min
Cook: 13 min

Four 1/2 inch pork chops
salt
1/4 cup flour
3 tbsp veg oil
1 shallot, finely chopped ( If you don't have a shallot, dice half a small onion)
2 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and diced (I used Fuji apples and it tasted great)
1/2 cup apricot jam
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth

1. Sprinkle pork chops with salt. Place flour in a shallow bowl and dredge chops on both sides.

2. Warm 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over med-high heat. Cook chops until browned, 3 to 4 mins on both sides. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil.

3. Add remaining 1 tbsp oil, shallot (onion) and apples to skillet. Cook, stirring, until softned, 2-3 mins. Add jam, vinegar and broth; cook, stirring and scrapping up any brown bits on the bottom, until sauce has thickened, 1 to 2 mins. Pour over chops and serve with your favorite veggie and side.

Get into select museums free with your BOA Card

If you are a Bank of America card holder you can get into select museums for free on the first weekend every month across the nation. I had been waiting for them to add Virginia to their list and they finally have. There is only one museum right now in Richmond, it's the Children's Museum of Richmond. I am hoping more museums join the list soon - it's a great way to see what your town has to offer.

Earn more ECB's at CVS

Here’s a fantastic new way to earn some additional ECBs!

Look for the Green Bag Tag pictured on your next trip to CVS, and purchase it for just $0.99. (not exactly sure where in the store you would find this, but you can always ask) Attach it to your favorite reusable shopping bag and have it scanned on each trip. (This should be a great incentive to remember those reusable bags)

You’ll earn $1 in ECBs every four times you use your reusable shopping tote and have your card scanned.

Details on card:
To earn Extra Bucks for a transaction in store, your ExtraCare card, Green Bag Tag, and reusable bag must be presented w/ purchase at checkout. Limit of one Green Bag Tag use/scan per day per household. Every 4th purchase your ECBs will print at the bottom of your cash register receipt as a $1 coupon good for your next purchase. Extra Bucks can be used until the expiration date shown on the coupon…
Kudos to CVS for giving customers an incentive reduce plastic bag use!

Thanks, Deal Seeking Mom!
