Mom's Pork Chop Supper
In honor of my sweet mother who got in a car accident last week and broke a vertebrae in her back (We love you, Mom!), I decided to post one of her most famous meals-at least among her children: Pork Chop Supper. It is super easy and will forever remind me of eating dinner with my family when I was young. This can be cooked in a slow cooker or on the stove top. As with most things, I prefer the slow cooker. There is something so gratifying about eating dinner and not having done anything for it, at least in the last 6-8 hours (or 4-6 if it is on high!). It makes me feel like someone else made it for me. And most meals taste better when someone else has cooked it for you. The other great thing about this meal is that most components of the meal are cooked together. No need to steam veggies for the side, it is all there together!

by: Lynne'
4 pork chops
2 cans tomato soup
1 can water
salt and pepper to taste
4-5 potatoes
4-5 carrots
1 onion
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
In your crock pot, mix together the tomato soup, water, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Cut the potatoes, onions and carrots into 1-2 inch chunks. Add the pork chops and vegetables to the pot and cook for 6-8 hours on low or 4-6 hours on high. If you cook this on the stove-top, bring it all to a boil and then turn it down to medium low heat and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
As a side note: the other day I made this and only had 1 can of tomato soup that wasn't extremely expired. So I made it using 1 can tomato soup, 1 can coconut milk, 1 can tomato sauce and 2 tsp. sugar, plus the other ingredients. It tasted wonderful!
