Beans and porkchops and rice

I'm going to talk about my success with a couple of recipes. My friend shared a bean recipe that goes into the crock pot and cooks for about seven hours--lima, black, northern, red--and I added bay leaves, split peas, black eyed peas, red and green peppers, onion,--it called for catsup, but I put in tomato juice, molasses and I think that's all. It is good, and now I have to put it into containers and freeze because it makes a lot!

I also got a tray of thin cut pork chops that I browned in butter, and then I put into a casserole dish and put white rice on top and covered with tomato juice. Wasn't sure what spices would be good, so I added some garlic powder and said, ok, that is enough.

Ok, and I got rye bread the last time that I was at the store along with some milk. I've been eating at thome alot more.
