Cooking together.

Brown rice with vegetables and marinated pork chops











In our home, we really enjoy cooking together. When we're all in the kitchen we seem to always have a good time. Whether it's a quick snack, a sweet treat, or a dinner we're preparing. We always enjoy preparing these as a family. 

Brown Rice with Vegetables: Diced-Carrots, red onion, cilantro, broccoli, red/green bell pepper, and garlic.
Seasoned with: Chili powder, cumin, ground pepper, salt, a dash of cinnamon, and garlic powder. Stir together with brown rice. We normally cook our brown rice in the oven for about an hour.

Pork chops: marinated in Worcestershire sauce,  Italian dressing, whole peppercorn, and soy sauce.
Cooked with peppers and onions.

I also prepared a quick and easy cucumber salad.

-cucumbers, sprinkle with garlic salt seasoning, and pepper and toss in Italian dressing. All done! 

Do you enjoy cooking together as a family? What's something you enjoy preparing with your family?

Enjoy!
