What is the one dish that your Mama always makes that you absolutely love? Mine was her German Pork Chops. This is the dish I always wanted for my birthday dinner or for a Sunday dinner.
When I was dating my husband I called her up and asked her for the recipe because I wanted him to love this dish as much as I did. The only piece of paper I could find in my future husbands place was a receipt so I wrote it down on the receipt.
About a year and a half after we married, my Mama passed away unexpectedly. I would never again taste her cooking. However, I was excited that I had the recipe, or so I thought. I had misplaced the receipt! I was devastated. I asked everyone I knew if Mama had given them the recipe, I scoured her recipe books and hand written notes. It was lost!
It has been almost three years since she passed and last winter I decided to go through some papers to shred. I looked at each and every paper coming out of the box. Lo and behold I came across that receipt that I had written on four years ago. Now I want to share the recipe with everyone else. Hope you enjoy!
1 package of pork chops (you can use boneless)
2 small onions (diced)

Place olive oil in a pan and sear the pork chops for about a minute on high heat. Drain the sauerkraut. Cut up the onions. Place all the ingredients into a crock pot with sauerkraut on top. Cook for 7 to 8 hours on low.
