Crispy Pork Cutlets & Cider Cabbage

This Little Piggy Went to Market...

Pork. It's what's for dinner.  Remember those pork cutlets Will Morrow described in my Hangry Hero spotlight? Well here's my version: quick, delicious and absolutely addicting.  I can see why he is so obsessed with them at the moment.  This supper was quite a highlight in my household - hangry bf ate three of the cutlets before we even sat down. It's even quicker if you enlist someone to help you make them - he took on the roll of fry cook, while I took care of the dredging station.  Keep reading to find out how to make these babies at home.

Oktoberfest!

Best of the Wurst

It's October!  Time for trips to the pumpkin patch, haunted forests and most importantly - soups, squash and sweatpants! Summer in the swamp of DC was brutal, and I opted for dishes that required minimal heat. Since Fall is finally upon us, it's time to light a fire under my.....stove, and get cookin'!  Last weekend I had a magical time in Disney World, where the Oktoberfest activities were in full swing. I wanted to keep the magic alive when I got home, so I created an Oktoberfest-style dinner complete with Bavaria Brass band playlist - nothing makes me hungrier than the sound of a tuba.  Let the feeling of gemütlichkeit come over you by making this meal for yourself!
