Sauted Apples and Balsamic Pork

So, this month I decided that I would have a budget and do the "envelope" method.  So, if you get the great joy of hanging out with me this month, please excuse me as I dig through my bag and try to take cash out of the appropriately labeled white envelope.

 Anyway, this endeavor made me really think about buying food.  I eat out a lot, and I throw away a ton of food too.  It's actually pretty horrible.  I buy groceries and then I am too lazy to make anything with them and end up eating a burrito instead.  So, I made a nice little grocery list, and I have been cooking up some gems!  I spent $75 on food that I am hoping will last two weeks.  So far I am almost one week in and I already have almost a week of leftovers freezing! It's like I'm a regular budgeting house wife or something.
anyway, here is a recipe that I made up for the pork chops that I bought.  As always, if there isn't a measurement...just toss it in.

You need:
Two pork chops
balsamic vinegar
butter
an apple thinly sliced
salt and pepper

So, put about 2 tbsp. of butter in a pan and melt it.  Add the apples and sauté until softened.

Place your two pork chops in a baking dish.  Salt and pepper those bad boys.  Dump the apple concoction on top.  Toss in some chunks of butter.  Pour in the balsamic vinegar (about 1/3 cup) but making sure that the apples are saturated and that there is some liquid in the bottom of the dish.

Toss in the oven for about 30 mins.  Use a meat thermometer to determine if it's done or not.  I think you can get worms or something from raw pork...gross.
