Spinach & Cheese Stuffed Pork Chops

My brother Jeff is hilarious. He has a way of telling jokes that makes them extra funny. I remember him joking about the Simpson's episode that Homer asked for the most expensive dish stuffed with the second most expensive dish. In the spirit of stuffed meat, here comes another way to dress up an ordinary pork chop.
You'll love the rich, creamy spinach goodness couched between layers of tender pork. This meal is delicious with rice and squash or sweet potato and green beans.

Spinach & Cheese Stuffed Pork Chops

2 pork chops
1 wedge light Laughing Cow Swiss cheese
1/2 can spinach
1 Tbsp olive oil
Slice a pocket into the side of each pork chop. Mix together well-drained and squeezed spinach with the cheese. Stuff each pork chop pocket with the spinach mixture, then sear the outside of the pork chops in a pan treated with olive oil. When both sides of each chop are seared to lock in the moisture, transfer them to a baking dish and bake in a 400 degree oven for ten minutes. Serves 2.
