Mamie, a package of pork chops that had the label "Iowa Chops" on the front. [insert smiley face here as I've tried to 3 times now and it locks my browser up each time.] Actually, I had to look it up and it's a thick center cut. The ones we had tonight were 1 3/4" and very moist and juicy. They were good but I prefer chops less thick as I'm not a fan of pork due to a past illness. But with the price of $2.09 a lb for the Iowa Chops and $4.39 for regular chops, we went with the Iowa Chops. We usually get our beef, pork, and some chicken from my uncle's farm. Uncle Junior just puts "pork chops" or "pork roast" or whatever it is on the package. I know we've had them this thick before but we just called them thick pork chops. *L* Iowa Chops is also the new name of the hockey team in town. Just thought I'd throw that in there.

Teach, the Greek pizza sounds yummy. Do you use a sauce or just put it on the shell?

I tend to avoid the sauce for Greek pizza as it doesn't have the flavor I want. Instead, I bake my pizza crust for 2 minutes first (I use the California Pizza Kitchen recipe) -- then I brush it with olive oil, sprinkle on some oregano and maybe mint,and put a very thin layer of mozzarella cheese down. It's then topped with thinly sliced roma tomatoes, red onions, red pepper, mushrooms, and black or green olives. Finally, I sprinkle feta and some more mozzarella on top and bake on a pre-heated stone in a 500 degree oven for 10-12 minutes (or until the cheese is nicely browned).

I'm making a shrimp and wild rice casserole from a Paula Deen cookbook. I've made it before and it's yummy.

Having a bigtime craving for tacos! I have been in my house for 14 days now, battling shingles. Today is the first day I feel well enough to venture outside, so I think a trip to the grocery store for taco stuff would be a nice first outing!
