This week’s meal was an easy one, and a great example of freezer shopping.
I walked down cellar Sunday morning and took these pork chops out of our freezer – shopping done!
We grilled the boneless chops (we grill year round, snow be damned) and roasted some red potatoes from Maine. I could have easily added some green beans or squash from the freezer, too, but we had a little bit of salad left from the week before (not local).
- From NH: Pork chops
- From ME: Potatoes
- From Away: salt, pepper, olive oil, dried red pepper flakes
Note: I’m in Inland Southern California this week, so I will try to post a local meal we eat there for next week. I’ve been disappointed by my ability to find local foods in that area of the state, but I’ll do my best to get to a market!


One of the few things I like this time of year is how easy “shopping in the stash” is – just go down and grab dinner
Roasted red potatoes – yum. Looking forward to hear about your California travels and what you find there!
Yay, snow grilling! That’s one of my dad’s favorite winter activities, too. He gets his steaks from a farm local to him and grills ‘em up year-round!
That photo seriously has my mouth watering. It may be pork chop time this weekend!
We grill year around, too. That’s about the only type of “cooking” my hubby can do, so I’m happy to get out some steaks.
