Experimenting in the kitchen has become another creative outlet for me. On the weekends I will spend some time looking at old cook books, Pinterest and some of my favourite chefs’ websites for inspiration.

Sometimes I will buy the ingredients prior to finding the recipe and work backwards. On my shopping trip to the grocery store yesterday, I picked up some pork chops, pears, blue cheese and numerous other things.

The combination of pork chops and blue cheese enticed me and so my search began for the prefect, easy recipe.

I came across She Knows’s recipe and thought why not. It appeared to be simple enough and did not require too long to achieve a scrumptious dinner.

I felt that the chops needed a side, so I made one of my specialties: mashed pepper squash with butter and brown sugar.

The prep and cooking time did not take long at all but the end result lacked some seasoning and although good, it was not as delectable as some other recipes I have tried.

If you are looking to try out the recipe, add salt, more cheese and cook the pears a little longer.

Bon appétit!
