Recipe(tried): Tasty Pork Chop Dinner and Heavenly Key Lime Pie

Menus
Hi!

I enjoyed a delicious tomato sandwich on white bread with Duke's mayo and a glass of sweet tea for lunch today...it doesn't get any better than that! Those Farmer's Market tomatoes are to die for, can't wait for Saturday!!

Tonight's dinner is pork chops sauteed with chickpeas, escarole and apple served alongside a crisp spinach salad and for dessert a Key Lime Pie which goes perfect with a cup of coffee!
