Italian Breaded Pork Chops

For Father's Day my hubs always gets to choose the menu. Per his request, I made my 'Potato Crust Quiche' for breakfast and he requested pork chops for dinner. I am no fan of pork chops - probably my least favorite thing on the planet to eat. But - it was Father's Day so I had to oblige. I wanted to try a new recipe that kicks the old 'chop' up - and I found this. I really wish I could remember where I found it - I need to be better about giving credit where it's due! I think that I found it through "Nanny Goat" a while back they had a recipe swap. Nanny Goat is the funnest blog! A recent find - 2 sisters (pretty sure they are Utah based) that have a TON of crafty ideas. Check it out at www.littlenannygoat.blogspot.com

Back to business. I made these and the kids and I were pleasantly surprised how good they were! Hubs even went back for seconds - they were that good. I'll have to get this recipe into the mix again!
