This last weekend I was really in the mood to cook and bake.  Here is what I made for Sunday dinner.  Also, because I love you guys so much I will share the recipes.

Pecan-Crusted Pork Medallions

1/2 tsp. pepper
 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil

1. In a large bowl, mix egg and honey. Add pork slices; toss to coat.
2. In a food processor, place pecans, cornmeal, salt and pepper. Process until finely chopped. Place pecan mixture in resealable plastic bag. Add pork slices; seal bag and shake to coat.
3. Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork in oil 6-8 minutes, turning once, until golden brown on the outside and no longer pink in the center.
