Pink, Smoked pork chops

In Sweden people eat smoked pork chops like crazy.
In salads, pasta, casseroles and whatever other way
imaginable. Its kinda pricey over here in the states,
maybe thats why its not as common? Anyway, go out,
buy some smoked pork chops and make this meal.
Its crazy easy (4 ingredients. HELLO!) and so good.
The leftovers are amazing to (yep, had some today).
Please enjoy.

You will need

Smoked pork chops (I'd say 2-3 slices/person)
1 can coconut milk (the original recipe calls for heavy cream,
I used coconut milk due to lactose intolerance and
because I'm on a diet and CM has less calories and fat.
If you use coconutmilk the sauce will be a little watery.
But if you substitute heavy cream you'll get a thicker
creamier sauce)
Chili sauce
Cherry tomatoes

Put pork chops in oven safe casserole dish.
Mix coconut milk with chili sauce (No exact measurements
needed, just poor and mix until pink).
Poor sauce over pork.
Cut tomatoes in half and put them in the dish
w/ the pork

Cook on 425 for 20mins.

Serve with pasta/rice/potatoes.
Mmmm



Of course I had to take some pictures of Abbies lunch to :)

Easiest lunch ever..Pizza Rolls



I found this recipe while browsing the internet for healthy kids lunches. I wouldn't call the original recipe that healthy, but I changed some of the ingredients to make it healthier. These pizza rolls are super easy to make and it takes aprox. 3mins from start to finish. Yeay for speedy kids lunches. I actually dont serve this to just my kids, I eat it myself too and its my favorite lunch right now (beats a plain old turkey sandwich any day!).

You will need

- 1 tortilla (I use low carb)
- Pizza sauce
- 4 slices of turkey (or salami or ham or whatever meat you have on hand)
- shredded cheese (I use whatever kind I have in the fridge, for a
healthy alternative use low fat)

Put tortilla on microwave safe plate. Spread pizza sauce on
the tortilla. Put the meat on the tortilla and spread some
cheese on top. Heat in the microwave for about 1min
(until cheese is melted). Let it cool a little bit and
make a roll. Cut into bite size pieces and enjoy :)
