Pork Chop Bake

My mother-in-law says you have to serve apples with pork. So I place some frozen strawberries in the microwave for a few seconds until they are soft. Then I blend them into applesauce...yummy!

1 T. oil

4 to 6 pork chops

10-3/4 oz. can cream of mushroom with roasted garlic soup

1 c. sour cream

1/4 c. milk

3 stalks celery, chopped

1/8 t. paprika

4 c. redskin potatoes, sliced

salt and pepper to taste

Optional: dried parsley, paprika

Heat oil in a large skillet; add chops and heat until golden on both sides. Remove from skillet and set aside. Mix together soup, sour cream, milk, celery and paprika; set aside. Arrange potatoes in a lightly greased 13"x9" baking pan. Pour soup mixture over potatoes. Arrange pork chops on top of soup; press down into soup, leaving tops exposed. Add salt and pepper to taste; sprinkle with parsley and paprika, if desired. Cover and bake for 1-1/4 hours at 375 degrees. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

Giant ice cubes! Add layers of thinly sliced lemons, limes and oranges in muffin cups. Fill each cup halfway with water and freeze. So pretty floating in a pitcher of tea, lemonade or ice water.
