NANA'S MELT IN YOUR MOUTH BLUE CHEESE PORK CHOPS
My Mom,(called Nana by her Grands), made these for us for years. They truly do melt in your mouth . If you are a Blue CHeese fan, these are for you. A fix and forget main dish. I always serve either rice or noodles with it so I don't miss any of the yummy gravy. Also, she used very thick bone in chops, I mostly use the boneless ones, but they really should be thick ones, no matter which type you choose.

BLUE CHEESE STUFFED PORK CHOPS
These are quite delicious. You need to have chops at least 1 inch in thickness. You can also a use a frenched rack of pork. I have made it with two thin chops toothpicked together but the presentation is not as nice. My family really liked these, and they are quite presentable for company. Also they are fairly simple to make.
