Pork Chops and Potatoes - 259.80 lbs.



Happy 1/11/11!

I am a fan on one dish meals. I am a bigger fan of one dish meals in the crock pot. I'm a morning person, and I love to start the day cooking.

Another hit with the whole family was this meal, especially the potatoes. Greg came home, and he jumped right in and even steamed us up some fresh green beans!

Pork Chops and Potatoes

6 4-ounce pork loin chops - trimmed
1 10 3/4-ounce can Campbell's 98% Fat Free Cream of Mushroom Soup

1 clove garlic - minced, or 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 medium potatoes -- thinly sliced
1 onion - sliced
