Pork Chops with Mushroom Gravy

Are you sick of eating Thanksgiving leftovers YET AGAIN for dinner?  Is your extended family looking at you wondering what’s for dinner? Are you still tuckered out from cooking the Super Bowl of all meals days after the big event?  Well, here is a fantastic recipe that is SUPER quick (25 minutes max prep & cook time).  Last week I stumbled across it just after I got home from traveling/eating out for a week.  I was exhausted from being on the road and I was craving a home cooked meal (I have no clue how Ann, my sister, and Matt, her boyfriend, travel full time).

Bacon Corn Chowder

Are you looking for a quickie???  Ok, get your head out of the gutter, it is not that kind of blog. This recipe was SUPER fast (20 minutes WHAT?!?!) and tasted great – a perfect weeknight meal.  When I found it on Cooking Light, there were mixed reviews…most of the negative comments were about the cooking directions, and I have adjusted them based on what I did.  The recipe also originally called for shrimp to be added, but I decided to substitute with some leftover chicken (already cooked) – put that in after the blending step.  To finish it off, I paired the soup with a nice piece of toasted sourdough bread to dip in the soup.
