Chinese Pork Chops
Chinese Pork Chops are so easy to make. They take little time to prepare and are much healthier than any Chinese take out food! I found this recipe on Allrecipes.com. This is actually one recipe I haven’t altered since it is perfect the way it is!

This was one of my ‘go to’ meals in college, and I had completely forgotten about it. I bet my kids would even eat it now. Thanks for the reminder (and the trip down memory lane!)
