Like chicken, pork chops are great for preparing cheap, easy meals that still have that good, old fashioned homemade taste. While plain pork chops are good, breaded pork chops are even better. But, at first, it may seem like a little too much work for a simple meal.
Fortunately, there"s an easy way to make breaded pork chops. As you"ll see in our Easy Breaded Pork Chops recipe, all you need is a package of chops, some flour, eggs, crushed crackers and some margarine.
Even someone who doesn"t cook much can whip up these chops in no time.
