Zesty Grilled Chops, rolls with homemade jelly & Creamy Fruit Salad

I needed a man to cook for!!
So, after 10 days of just quick mac & cheese for the girls and salads for me... it was a celebration worth cooking for when Brett got home from his 10 day fishing adventure.

ZESTY GRILLED CHOPS
Ingredients:
3/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1 Tbsp chili sauce
1/4 tsp garlic powder
4-6 pork chops
Directions: 
In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the soy sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar, chili sauce and garlic powder.  Remove 1/4 cup for basting  and refrigerate.  Add pork chops to the bag; seal bag and turn to coat.  Refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight, turning once.
Drain and discard marinade from the pork chops.  Grill.

CREAMY FRUIT SALAD
Ingredients:
2 medium apple, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups chopped, peeled mango  (I substitute for fresh pineapple which I already had)
2 cups halved, seedless grapes
1/4 cup sour cream
3 Tbsp chopped walnuts, toasted

Directions:
In a large bowl, combine apples, mango, grapes and sour cream.  Refrigerate until serving.  Just before serving, stir in walnuts.
