Star Ingredient: Apples

Mike had come back from Boot Camp months after leaving the beginning of Fall.  We decided last minute to have Mike and his family over again for Dinner.  This was during the week so I had to prepare something real quick after work.  Can never go wrong with Pork in general so I picked up some Pork Chops from HEB.

I got home and realized a plain Pork Chop and Asparagus was going to be too simple for them especially after months of him being in Boot Camp.  I had several Apples so I made Stuffed Apple Pork Chops with a Shallot White Wine Reduction Sauce. 

Asparagus was going to be served as the Side Dish and that was served with a Hollandaise Sauce.  Spicy Herb Roasted Potatoes was the 2nd Side Dish. 

 
 After dinner, I cannot remember if it was me or their kids that wanted dessert (most likely it was me).  Why not stick with the Apple theme and continue on with a Salted Caramel Apple Pie. 

(I need to get a new Pastry Brush.  Not a fan of the Silicone ones.)
