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 almost loved this recipe. There was just something about the papaya butter that needed some tweaking, but I can't figure out what. Maybe it was the papaya I used, I'm not sure. It just had a flavor that didn't quite work with the sage pork. Overall a good recipe and everything turned out well. My pork chops weren't quite as thick as what the recipe said so I cooked them less time.
