Oven bake mustard and parmesan pork chops

budget eating feeding the masses pork chops

Mustard and parmesan baked pork chops, that's what's on the menu tonight. I have to admit that my 73.00 budget has been upped slightly, One of the fine young adults living here brought in some frozen veggies, cauliflower, okra, broccoli, green peas, and cauliflower, and a block of cheddar cheese, so that helps a good bit on feeding us through the week and adds im gonna say it adds about 15.00 to the expense of groceries this week, but still an exciting challenge to see if we can make it through the week feeding 11 people on $88.00

Tonight's meal is a little of the leftover buffalo pork bubble up, creamed corn that I already had on hand, broccoli and cheese, and baked mustard and parmesan pork chops.

I regret not adding the broccoli to some potatoes to stretch them more, there is clearly not going to be enough of that but on a side note three of them aren't eating here tonight, and I know at least one of them doesn't like broccoli so I got that going for me. One is working tonight and usually grabs something on her break, another spent the day with her grandma and brought home a dinner plate of good ol' home cooked grandma food, and Clarissa the 3 year old is off having a world wind adventure with her other grandma and won't be home tonight.

In any case I think there is enough variety in there everyone will get something and life will remain good on the plantation.

The chops were from the tenderloin we caught on sale yesterday and had the butcher at bilo cut for us, He cut it into 2 roasts and these 12 chops.

Now for what you came here for...

The recipe...

If you recall, a few posts back I made my own homemade mustard. You can find that recipe here. Today I used it on these yummy pork chops.

Parmesan Mustard Baked Pork Chops

I cooked 12 pork chops but ingredients are as with most of my recipes per your taste nothing is set in stone here..

I used the homemade mustard I whipped up the other day, but any coarsely ground or dijon mustard will work

1/3 cup mustard (homemade or dijon)

garlic powder to taste

lemon pepper to taste
salt to taste

1/3 to 1/2 cup parmesan cheese to taste

12 pork chops

In baking dish or cast iron skillet ( I used cast iron skillet) lightly grease dish and put pork chops into dish in a single flat layer

In mixing bowl mix all other ingredients and rub evenly into pork chops

cook covered for 40 minutes in a 350 degree oven then remove cover and bake another 15 minutes or so until top starts to brown.

The critics are loving it Ive already been complimented on them twice without me prodding them for a review, that's when I know I've did well..

What are you cooking tonight?
