A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

I don't normally get to excited about pork chops but I had to come back and write a review about these. Wow! It is a very elaborate recipe but the flavor of the chops was out of this world!
