Apple and Rosemary Pork Chops

Like a lot of people, the most annoying question my husband and I ask each other almost every day is “What’s for supper?”.  We throw our hands in the air, get frustrated, hate to even think about what we could possibly have.  This week, I decided to find some new (and EASY) recipes, that I could do.  I have very very little hands free time. Bobae loves to play with mom, be carried by Mom, and sleep in Mom’s arms a lot of the time. SO, I found slow cooker recipes that I could throw together in the mornings while she played happily in her exersaucer for those magical 25 happy morning minutes. SEE! My husband told me I wasn’t allowed to buy anymore cookbooks (because usually I only read them and don’t use them to cook), so now it is worthwhile for him! This one was my favourite this week:

Ingredients

  • 2 cans of Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup (Low fat)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 8 boneless pork chops, 3/4-inch thick
  • 4 large Granny Smith apples, sliced
  • 2 large onions, sliced

Directions

  1. Mix soup, water, sugar, Worcestershire and thyme in slow cooker. Add pork, apples and onions.
  2. Cover and cook on LOW 8 to 9 hours or until done
