Storage Ingredients

1/4 c. vinegar

1/2 tsp. dry mustard

1/2 tsp. ground pepper

1/2 tsp. brown sugar

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Thank you to my friend Kris for sharing this family favorite recipe. Back in the early 70’s it won a weekly contest in the Deseret News!

Fresh Ingredients

4-6 pork sirloin boneless chops

1/2 c. onion, diced

1/2 c. celery, diced

2 Tbsp. butter

Storage Ingredients

2 c. rice

1/2 c. golden raisin

1/2 c. orange marmalade

1/2 c. mayonnaise

1 can chicken broth (14.5 oz.)

1/2 c. evaporated canned milk

1/4 c. rice wine vinegar

2 Tbsp. curry powder

1 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. pepper

Cut pork chops into 1″ chunks. Saute onion and celery with butter in a large frying pan until just slightly cooked. Remove vegetables and add pork chunks to frying pan and quickly brown on high. Mix all the ingredients and transfer to a lightly oiled 9″ x 13″ cake pan. Cover tightly with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.

This is a great one pan meal deal. I’ve made the full recipe and divided it into small freezer bag portions for many delicious microwaveable lunches or dinners. I love being able to steam carrots and broccoli and have an instant homemade meal, from food storage! If you want to be extra fancy, garnish with a little fresh orange zest, toasted slivered almonds, or cilantro on top.
