Notes
- ↑ "Healthy Recipes for Diabetic Friends Y-Group" http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Healthy_Recipes_For_Diabetic_Friends/
- ↑ I had better luck fitting all the pork chops in the pan if I removed the bones first.
- ↑ Instead of the water in the sauce, I used some brewed cranberry apple herbal tea and it gave it a wonderful flavor. Because the cider vinegar has such a strong flavor, the tea didn't really make it taste more like apple, but it gave it a richer, more complex flavor. Simply brew 1 cup of Bigelow Cranberry Apple herbal tea as directed on the package and use ½ cup of the unsweetened tea in place of the water in the recipe. Note that some kinds of apple-flavored herb teas have spices added. This particular flavor does not. It just has a fresh apple flavor.
