Hello! How was your weekend? Like the past few weekends, we had a good mix of productivity and laziness. The weekend weather felt like a glimpse of summer, for sure!
I was looking through my recipe box, which I don’t do very often, and I stumbled upon a meal I hadn’t made in awhile. It’s so easy, delicious, and a family favorite.
Ingredients:

- 6 boneless pork chops
- Salt and pepper
- Chopped onion (about half a small onion…or more if you prefer!)
- 1 jar Marinara sauce
- 0rzo pasta
- Shredded Mozzarella cheese
Instructions:
- Salt and pepper both sides of the pork chops and place in the bottom of your slow cooker.
- Sprinkle the onions over the top of the pork chops.
- Pour Marinara sauce over the pork chops and onions.
- Cover and cook for 4 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low.
- When ready to eat, cook Orzo pasta according to package directions.
- Place pasta on plate (or in bowl), the scoop out desired amount of pork chops and sauce. (*Note- meat is so tender that it will fall apart.)
- Sprinkle with Mozzarella cheese (and some chopped fresh basil if you have some)
- Enjoy!

I’d forgotten how easy and delicious this dinner is! We even had leftovers the next night!
We have one more full week of distance learning! #praisehands So…I’m go get my mind right for this week!
Thanks for reading!
