Pork loin chop casserole

(4) lean pork loin chops
(1) 12 oz. light sour cream
(1) box of low sodium stuffing mix
(1) can of low sodium Cream of Brocolli Soup
(1) can of Rotel sauce (chunky is ok, but I prefer the sauce)

Make stuffing in microwave seperately. Set aside.

Place pork loin chops in skillet and brown.

In a Pyrex baking dish, mix the soup, sour cream and Rotel. Place the chops in the mix and coat evenly. Sprinkle the stuffing over the top.

Bake at 400 deg. F for 30 minutes.

Great, low cal comfort food.

(You can also substitute cubed chicken breast in place of the chops)

Oh yummy! I'm substituting the crayfish for lobster. It's my husbands favorite meal and we usually have to drive the 100 mi. to Vegas. I'm making this tomorrow night. I'll let you know how it turned out, thank you!

I haven't tried it, but it sounds extremely simple to make. I haven't had decent crawfish since I left Georgia.
