Porterhouse steaks with tapenade and balsamic vinegar
3/4 Cup purchased tapenade or black olive paste
4 teaspoons fresh rosemary
2 porterhouse steaks
4 teaspoons grape seed oil
4 balsamic vinegar
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix tapenade and Rosemary in a small bowl to blend. Sprinkle steaks with salt and generous amount of pepper.
Divide oil between 2 heavy medium ovenproof skillets set over high heat. Add 1 steak to each skillet and cook until browned, about 3minutes per side. Spread half of tapenade mixture over each steak. Transfer skillets with steaks to oven. Roast until thermometer inserted into center of steaks registers 125*F for medium-rare, about 20 minutes. Transfer steaks to platter.
Pour 2 tablespoons vinegar into each skillet. Cook over medium heat until pan juices are slightly reduced, scraping up browned bits, about 1 minute. Drizzle pan juices over steaks.

Sauteed Scallops with Lemon Buerre Blanc
8 - 10 large Horizon diver sea scallops
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper
Grapeseed oil for sautéing
For the buerre Blanc
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon dry white wine
1 small shallot, minced
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter cut into 12 pieces
Salt and fresh ground pepper
Minced fresh chives for garnish (optional)
Pat scallops dry with paper towels. Season on both sides with salt and pepper to taste. Coat the bottom of a large sauté pan with oil and heat over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers. Add the scallops and sear on both sides until lightly golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Transfer the scallops to a platter/baking dish in the oven at low 200 degrees to keep warm.
To make the lemon buerre blanc, combine the lemon juice, wine and shallot in a small, heavy saucepan. Bring to a low boil over medium-low heat and cook until the liquid is reduced to about 1teaspoon. Remove the pan from the heat and using a whisk, beat in 1 piece of butter, then a second piece. Place the pan over very low heat and whisk in the remaining butter one piece at a time to make an emulsified sauce. Remove from the heat and whisk in salt and pepper.
Pour the buerre blanc over the scallops and sprinkle with the chives. Serve immediately.
Serves 2
Our sea scallops are $2.00 each and beautiful. They are each individually flash frozen and taste liked you just picked them from the ocean!

Sweet Potato Pork Chop Meal
With all of this crazy weather going on around the nation, I figured today would be the perfect day for a slow cooker meal. Not only is this recipe delicious, but it is also so comforting and smells amazing while it cooks! Plus sweet potatoes are so amazing for you!
My days are already busy so I tend to pull out my slow cooker this time of year and begin dinner early in the day. Besides the house smelling yummy when I get home, I'm thrilled that dinner is ready to serve when I walk in the door.
Here's one I tried this week that my husband loved. Sweet potatoes are High in vitamin A and C and are powerful antioxidants.
I offer bone in pork chops or boneless. Both are perfect for this recipe. Cost is $6.00 per chop. Call me or email me. I'll deliver right to your door. I have plenty in stock today!!! (Southern California Residents only.)
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
4-6 Center cut pork chops (boneless or bone in -- both work)
2 Tbsp grapeseed oil
1/2 cup (1stick) unsalted butter
1 large onion (Vidalia or yellow) thinly sliced into half rounds
4 medium sweet potatoes peeled and cut into 1/2- inch slices
1 cup orange juice
Combine the thyme, salt and pepper in small bowl. Sprinkle half the mixture on both sides of the chops. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
Add the pork chops and brown on both sides. Transfer the pork to the slow cooker. Melt the butter in the same skillet over medium high heat. Add the remaining thyme mixture and sauté for 1 minute.
Add the onion and sauté until the onion begins to soften-about 3 minutes. Transfer the onion to the slow cooker leaving some of the butter in the skillet. Cover the onion with the sweet potato slices and pour the orange juice over all.
Drizzle the potatoes with the butter remaining in the skillet. Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 6 hours until the Chops and potatoes are tender.
Happy Cooking.

411 on Grocery Stores
Just how well do you know your local supermarket? Are there really things they wouldn't want me to know? Take a look for yourself.......
- Supermarkets on average, inject the meat an poultry with 25-45% water to make the meat look plumper. You are paying for this water.
- The supermarket is designed to slow you down as much as possible. Every extra minute you spend lingering will cost you $1.70, according to current research.
- The salad bars a "germ buffet". E-coil and salmonella are the most common inhabitants in these areas.
- The healthiest foods are the hardest to get to. The supermarkets place the healthiest items in the hardest to reach places.
- Shopping carts have more germs and bacteria than escalators and public bathrooms.
- 60% of all supermarkets had critical violations during health inspections. The biggest violation was keeping the meats at the proper temperature. Other big issues are insects and rodents.
- The Department of Weights and Measures found that, on average, supermarkets sell packages of meat that were 3.5% less than the stated weight. This can cost you hundreds of dollars yearly.
- It is estimated that at least 20 people have touched the produce before you.
- Research has shown that 60-70% of what ends up in our carts is unplanned. This is because the supermarket places the hard to resist items in easy view and reach.
- Scanners make mistakes and most of those occur on sale items
