Healthy Heaven!

This is one of my FAVORITE health recipes. I LOVE IT! And what I like even more is that it takes about 5 minutes of prep time - if even that.

So without further ado, please welcome my dinner from last night!


Who wants some?!? Here is the recipe that I use!

INGREDIENTS:
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple rings, juice
drained and reserved
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
4 pork chops
1 pinch ground black pepper

DIRECTIONS:
1. Mix together the drained pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, and garlic powder
together in a large plastic zipper bag, and smush the bag a few times with your
hands to mix the marinade and dissolve the sugar. Place the pork chops into the
marinade, squeeze out any air in the bag, seal it, and refrigerate overnight. Reserve
the pineapple rings.

2. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.

3. Remove the chops from the marinade, shaking off excess, and grill until browned,
the meat is no longer pink inside, and the meat shows good grill marks, 5 to 8
minutes per side. Brush several times with marinade and let the marinade cook onto
the surface of the meat. Discard excess marinade. While the meat is grilling, place 4
pineapple rings onto the grill, and allow to cook until hot and the slices show grill
marks; serve the chops topped with the grilled pineapple rings.

I usually serve it with brown right, and I add some pineapple chunks to the rice RIGHT after it is done cooking so they are nice and warm! Then I save some of the marinade to drizzle over the rice as well. It's Delish!

ENJOY!!!
