This recipe was a disaster! The pork chops were overcooked and the stuffing was burnt. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I wasn't a fan of this recipe. The pork chops were dry and the stuffing was bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall it was good. The pork chops were cooked perfectly and the stuffing was flavorful.
