Nita’s notes:
These chops are delicious!! Like I said, they are GREAT with barley; but, they are also flavorfully fantastic with brown rice, quinoa, bulgar, etc.. And I just love collards; but, any green veggie is splendid.
This is an easy dinner entrée that can be done in minutes—MINUTES, I say. I just LOVE pork chops, really I do. Next to fish, it’s my favorite protein.
I hope you enjoy this simply scrumptious entrée. And, as always, make healthier choices for a happier life!
