Right now I’m all about quick and healthy meals on our table. Meals that I can create from start to finish in under 1 hour…especially on weeknights. We’re so busy, and sometimes I’m so tired, making dinner can feel like such a chore. But it doesn’t have to be. If you plan ahead and have the right ingredients on hand, meal time doesn’t have to be stressful.
So I’ve been busy creating new meal recipes that I think families will love. Recipes that use simple and fresh ingredients, and if I can have everything made in one pot, that’s even better! This recipe for Creamy Parmesan Garlic Pork Chops is that kind of recipe.
Tender grilled pork chops simmered in a creamy garlic, parmesan sauce. And for extra flavour and nutrition I’ve added handfuls of fresh spinach. Winner winner pork chop dinner.
And everything is ready in 40 minutes. Can’t beat that.
Doesn’t that look like comfort in a pot?
Serve this dish over rice or your favourite noodles. SO good.

Have a delicious day!
This is my husband’s favorite meal! I eat keto so I have tweaked it for that, using 2 tbs of almond flour in place of regular flour, and it’s still perfect. Other times I’ve used half cooking wine and half chicken broth. But made with or without a personal touch, it’s awesome!
I’m so happy you enjoyed this recipe!!
I added white wine and a cup of sour cream and some thyme and smoked paprika and scant amount of red pepper flakes. It was a hit
Sounds delicious!
