I use unsweetened applesauce so it's not as fattening as it could be.

My grandmother (on dad's side) used to make it lightly breaded, like a cutlet. Man it was yummy.

I wasn't raised to associate pork and applesauce, but every now and then I get a big craving for it. I always just buy a couple granny smith apples and make my own in a pot on the stove.

And Mame, breaded is the only way I can eat porkchops. Mix some dijon and/or HP sauce with your milk and egg, and some rosemary with your breadcrumbs. Fry on both sides until brown and then bake on some sort of rack (I use a round cooling rack inside a pie plate - lets the fat drip off).

Thx Karen but I HATE Rosemary, what can I use instead? (I have to admit, I only have paprika and dill and somthing called Italian seasoning in the cupboard). My granny fried hers in Crisco and said the Crisco was the secret for the yummy flavour.

Absolutely, Mame... it's gotta be in Crisco. Veg or olive oil doesn't do the same.

You can skip the rosemary completely. My mum only used cream/egg, and plain breadcrumbs. The additions are all my pretending to have an epicurean palette. Some basil might be nice? But if you don't use any herbs or condiments, you won't miss 'em at all.

...and by the way, I can't advocate the possession of spices enough. Sure, it's an expensive start-up, but to have a well stocked spice rack expands your dinner options greatly. I currently have 24 spice jars and need about 12 more to be able to get my spices out of the cupboard.

I like to joke that I was raised in the HOUSE OF BLAND. The arguments were spicey enough. LOL

I have already made potato salad, put on some pinto beans to cook all day and marinated DH's tri tip for him to bbq. And now our gorgous sunshine is hidden behind a fog bank. Oh well at least we will eat good...inside!
