Crushed peppercorns add a slight twist to the traditional Sunday roast pork dinner. Biscuits or rolls with herbed butter are a nice addition.

Pepper vinegar makes a thoughtful gift for the host or hostess who loves to cook or loves hot and spicy foods. It is very easy to prepare and only uses two ingredients. However, if you are like me you may haunt vintage shops and flea markets for days or weeks just looking for the right bottle.

Janet Boyer host on several BellaOnline Channels gave me this peachy avocado salsa recipe. It MUST be tried to be appreciated. The flavors just meld together. I made this salsa and found it to be absolutely delicious with pork.

This easy chicken dish has only two ingredients - chicken and salsa sauce

I found this oven baked shrimp recipe written on a piece of paper in the back of a second hand cook book. I tried it and have been making to for 15 years or more. It has just a few ingredients and requires a lot of newspaper for the buttery shrimp peels.

Easy to make Orange & Lemon Marmalade

This blend of savory and sweets make a lovely side dish for pork chops or pork loin. Good with steak also.

A friend of mine loves Thai food, together we came up the our own version of Khai Yad Sai (stuffed omelette). Our version is more of a shirred egg omelet. Very good.
