These were yummy and really very easy. They also looked gorgeous. I'm thinking I may also try mustard nex time, for a little zing. -
Very attractive, tasty dish. I cut the recipe back to one chop. Prepare ahead if you choose and just heat and finish it before dinner. Next time I make it I will paint the chops with a layer of mustard before adding the top layer of apples. I served it with a potato dumpling (had it in the freezer) and left over spicy sweet potatoes - excellent meal thanks Carla
