  1. Followed your recipe exactly except for omitting the nuts. I thought it was a little dry so I served it with gravy. I think it could use another 1/2 cup of hot water. I'm not used to apples and raisins in my stuffing recipe, it's a different taste. My favorite part was the dijon mustard spread on the pork chops.

  2. Followed your recipe on for this dish, although I did use a nutty, whole grain bread that I diced & then oven-toasted before continuing with the recipe! Also used a honey Dijon mustard, but other than that . . . Had a wonderfully flavorful chop dinner that included some homemade apple sauce! I'll be doing this recipe again & again! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed in Zaar Cookbook Tag]
     
  3. Delicious pork chop recipe to add to my favorite recipes binder. Used butter instead of margarine, personal preference, and greased a glass baking dish with recipe #78579 for easy clean up. Made homemade croutons similar to recipe #301695 with an added dash of poultry seasoning and garlic powder, and replaced the water with homemade chicken broth. You could use potato water saved from boiling potatoes too. Tip: Freeze some potato water in ice cube trays for deglazing pans. Made for Please Review My Recipe.
     
  4. Very good! I made several changes however by skipping the croutons, pecans and thyme. For the seasoning salt I used onion salt and also used dark raisins and 2 granny smith apples. We served these with roasted brussel sprouts for a great fall dinner. Thanks for sharing!
     
  5. This is simply delicious. I used dark raisins since that is what I had and skipped the nuts so that DH would eat it and I used a red apple, again, because it's what I have. The timing for the recipe is right on, I used 4 oz slices of loin that were just under an inch thick and they were well cooked. It was a perfect meal for tonight as it's been raining and cold for the last 2-3 days and feels a lot more like fall than summer. Thanks for posting, this was enjoyed by everyone.
