Carleton Place Almonte Canadian Gazette
Lifestyle - Cooking meatloaf in a muffin pan cuts the cooking time in half.
Serve with mashed potatoes and green beans - retro yes, but it's comfort food with a bit of a kick. If you have leftovers, chop and place in a tortilla with lettuce, cheese and a spoonful of salsa for a quick lunch. If desired, heat briefly in the microwave.

Preparation time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 21 to 31 minutes Serves: Makes 12 muffins

* Preparation instructions In microwaveable bowl, combine onion, yellow pepper and oil.
* Cover and microwave on High for one minute to slightly soften.
* In large bowl, combine meat, onion mixture, egg, 3/4 cup (175 mL) of the salsa, cornmeal, pur?ed chipotle, salt and pepper.
* Divide meat mixture among 12 muffin cups, pressing down lightly. Spoon 2 tsp (10 mL) of the remaining salsa on each muffin.
* Bake in 350?F (180?C) oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in centre of each reaches 160?F (71?C).
* Let stand 5 minutes before removing from pan.
* Pur?e entire can of chipotles with adobo sauce until smooth.
* Transfer remainder to an airtight container and freeze to use later in chili, soup, barbecue sauce or with mayo for a spicy vegetable dip or sandwich spread.

Garlicky Lamb Chops with Dilled Sun-Dried Tomato Tzatziki & Roasted
Pecorino Asparagus
Early Summer 2013
By: Victoria Walsh

This simple rustic meal can be put together any night of the week and yet it’s elegant enough for entertaining too. If you can’t get your hands on lamb chops, use pork chops in their place. Keep your eye on them because, depending on their thickness, timing may vary and you may need to brown them in batches.

* Arrange racks in top and bottom thirds of oven.
* Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
* Rub 1 tbsp (15 mL) oil, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper all over chops.
* Spread asparagus out on a baking sheet.
* Drizzle with enough olive oil to coat.
* Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
* Shake the pan to evenly coat.
* Set a large frying pan (that can go in the oven) over medium-high heat.
* Coat with remaining 1 tbsp (15 mL) oil for chops.
* When hot, add chops.
* Cook for 1 to 2 minutes per side until browned.
* Adjust heat if needed, being careful not to burn the garlic. If pan is not ovenproof,
* Remove chops to a rack on a baking sheet.
* Roast chops in top and asparagus in bottom of oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until chops are done as you like and asparagus is tender.
* Remove each when done.
* Loosely cover chops and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
* Scatter Pecorino over asparagus.
* Meanwhile, stir tomatoes and dill into tzatziki.
* Serve chops with asparagus and tzatziki.
