Pork chops and applesauce is one of my favorite combinations. What could make it better? Making your own applesauce instead of using store bought so that you can control the ingredients and sugar content. Any apples will work and you just add seasoning to the pork to suit your tastes. I like simple salt and pepper, but Cajun seasoning or herbs are delicious.

It looks delicious but what can’t you make recipes for 2. It’s really hard when they feed 4or6 people. It’s easier to double the recipe than figure out 1or2 servings.
