We don't eat a lot of pork, well my husband eats it every morning, but I only have a few tried and true dinner favorites. I have it scheduled on leftover night so I only cook it on the weeks we don't have leftovers. So anyway I got it into my head that i wanted to make pork chops, (which is crazy because I don't even like pork chops) and I got to looking around on the web, found this "German" recipe and tweaked it a bit, the family LOVED it. Nothing gourmet or fancy, just one of those quick easy dinners that really filled their tummys. I served it with pickled beets & pumpernickle bread much to my husbands delight.

6 pork loin chops
course ground mustard (I used walmart best buy brand)
flour (I used gravy flour)
olive oil (or whatever oil you've got)
large can of Cambels Chicken & Rice Soup - UNDILUTED

In the morning poke the chops all over with a fork and smear really good with the mustard, let chill in frig all day.
in the evening heat oven to 400
coat the mustard chops with flour & brown both sides in oil in a fry pan (about a minute or two per side)
spray Pam in a baking dish and lay the browned chops in a single layer
pour the UNDILUTED soup over the chops - piling the rice on top of each one
Cover baking dish with foil and cook apx 30 min - depending on the thickness of the chops
When they are done remove the chops to a servng platter and mix a tablespoon or two of mustard in the drippings, this makes a great gravy for whatever vegis you're serving.

this was a just a hair too salty for me, but the chops were SUPER tender & moist, mykids and husband thought the salt was just fine, I'll probably look for a low sodium version of the soup the next time, I don't buy canned soup very often so not sure if that even exists.
 
That's a great idea, I bet you could use just about any flavor of soup. I was thinking Chicken Gumbo Soup would be good with all the okra.

Here is one my mom used to make when we were growing up...this is comfort food.

In a large skillet or Dutch oven, get pan really hot and fry pork chops quickly in a little oil, just enough to put some color on the pork chops.

Add a can of cream of mushroom soup and 1/2 soup can of heavy cream to the pork chops.

Add a medium head of cabbage that has been cut up into small wedges and a large onion, chopped. Cook, adding chicken broth as needed, till cabbage is done and the gravy is the right thickness. Taste gravy and adjust seasonings.

Serve over cooked rice.
