a recipe or two

what a week. i was fairly close to paleo before i started this party so i thought this would be pretty easy. think again...
thought i'd share a few recipes/food ideas that i have found delicious. others, please do the same, i need more ideas!

1. baked pork and apples
ingredients: 1 pork tenderloin (usually a little over 1 lb), one large yellow onion, 3 large granny smith apples, olive oil, black pepper.
preheat oven to 375
season pork with a little black pepper (fennel seeds supposedly are good too, but i didn't have these and it was still delicious)
heat a little oil in pan, sear pork on all sides over high heat until browned, ~ 5 min, set aside
heat a little more oil in pan, add chopped onion, a minute or two later add sliced apple (sliced about 1/4 inch thick), cook until they just start to change color, ~5 min max
put pork on top of apples in a baking dish, transfer to the oven until the pork is done but not dry, about 15-20 min
serve and enjoy :) this should be enough for plenty of leftovers, or a meal for multiple people

2. swiss chard
hardly a recipe it's so simple, but somehow i needed a recipe to convince me to try cooking chard, and go figure, it's delicious..
ingredients: garlic, olive oil, red chard
slice several cloves of garlic, saute in olive oil over med-high heat for several minutes
slice chard (aprox. 1" thick), add to pan with a little water, cover and cook for 5 minutes, flip all of chard (so bottom is on top and vice versa) and cook, covered, for another 5 minutes

another super-simple veggie suggestion: red and yellow bell peppers and red onion sauted in olive oil and fresh lime juice -- the lime goes really well with the peppers.

rex, re breakfast, i've been stuck on that too -- jordan suggested making your own turkey sausage with ground turkey and finely chopped veggies. i'm going to give it a try this weekend, i'll let you know how it goes.
