SAUCY PORK CHOP FOR ONE (OR MORE)
Living single makes it hard for those of us who are used to cooking for a family of four. I invested in a new magazine called Cooking for 2 and LOVE IT! The recipes are for one or two folks and no leftovers to crowd my fridge. I like this one because the pork chop is not rubbery or tough to eat and the sauce can be easily multiplied to serve several people.
