What do you think of when you think of comfort food?

For me, it’s my moms recipes. She didn’t cook too much, but when she did it was always delicious and some of my favorite meals that I still make today.

My mom worked for a newspaper as an accountant, and at some point they made a company cookbook and this recipe was in it. She started making it on the regular in our house and to this day whenever I smell it cooking it makes my mouth water. The boneless pork chops become melt in your mouth good cooked low and slow in the sweet tomato sauce, and it’s so delicious served with a side of mashed potatoes.

My mom was Irish and loved her potatoes. That’s how I grew up eating this and serve it to this day, but I have used rice or butter noodles too and it’s just as tasty. 🙂

My daughter absolutely adores this meal. She even eats the onions and peppers because they become so sweet! I love making this on a chilly fall or winter night too. It’s the perfect meal for sweater weather!

Here’s how to make it…Enjoy!
