Sweet 'n Sour Pork Chop Bake
"This tasty dish takes minutes to prepare, but leaves you time to 'put your feet up' before dinner has to be on the table. The tangy, but creamy, sauce thickens and reduces right down as it cooks. Lovely with red cabbage and/or spinach side dishes, and I reckon Light Scalloped Potatoes recipe #23642 by MizzNezz would also go a treat (just make sure you pop them in the oven 10 to 20 minutes before the chops)."

Made this for supper tonight. Great blend of flavors. A little different from what we are used to, but a great new dish for our family.
