Description
Sometimes I’ll be at the end of a week and the only thing I’ll have is some pork chops in the fridge. It’s times like these that I like to whip up these Mexican Pork Chops for the family. This meal is really easy to make and comes out fast. It’s nice if I need to throw something together really quick and don’t feel like thinking about what we’re going to have for dinner. This will feed a family of 4.
