Spinach & Artichoke Stuffed Pork Chops
This has become my new favorite way to enjoy pork chops. It’s flavorful, creamy and makes excellent leftovers. The pan sauce adds a touch of lemon and enhances the spinach and artichoke stuffing flavors.
Regular cream cheese will work in this recipe if you can tolerate dairy and are not on a round of Whole30.
